<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NPCoin, post: 3730251, member: 5629&quot;]If your coins are truly 16.5mm, then that is the same size as the US $5 Gold Eagle bullion.&nbsp; A16 direct fit capsules are meant for that particular coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you have a B&amp;M dealer in your area that sells them, you should have no problem taking one of your coins to him to make sure they would fit properly.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>edit:</p><p>I should answer your question, also.&nbsp; The suggested size for 16.5mm coins for air-tite foams from suppliers that I have used has been the 16mm size.&nbsp; So, I would suggest using the more snug fit.&nbsp; As well, as Kanga pointed out, coins rattling/sliding is not a good thing.&nbsp; Then again, you&#039;re only looking at a 2% size difference either way, so I&#039;m not sure how much &quot;slide&quot; you would get.&nbsp; Perhaps a trial and error would do good by testing one of your coins in both a 16mm and a 17mm to see which one you prefer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
