How do you store your Polish 2 zloty commemoratives?

    I've got a fair number (~25) of modern Polish 2 zloty commemorative coins, some in capsules and most in flips. I'd like to store them in something better - maybe a proper album, hard plastic 2x2s, or Air-Tites - but I can't find anything that will for sure fit them correctly. They're 27mm in diameter and most holders I've found advertised as "27mm" are actually more along the lines of 26.5mm or 27.5mm to fit American coins, and even though my zlotys aren't particularly valuable I'd rather not have my coins rattling around in holders (like the ones in the slightly oversized capsules currently do). I also have a couple silver 10 zloty commemoratives with the same problem, I need 32mm holders and can't find anything exactly that diameter. How do you store your 2 zloty coins? Any recommendations would be really helpful.

    Wow, that looks great! Thanks for the recommendation, this looks like a great way to store them while still allowing for easy display.

    You will need Model H blank page for 27mm airtites size.

    Very nice, what kind of case is that? Are the coins held tightly enough they won't slide if it's stood vertically?

    If you mean the coins I think you do, it seems like a lot of work and a expense for those coins. I have mine in 2x2s in plastic pages.

    Why is that? They're fairly cheap coins for sure (I think on average I paid around $3 apiece for mine), but I feel like a $1 holder isn't too pricy if you aren't planning on selling them.

    Thanks!
    The coins are tacked w/ a small dab of rubber cement & held securely against the glass. This prof is not a coin collector but I imagine he will appreciate the display
    none the less. The 8x10" frame is sterling silver.
    Addendum: If you care to see which coin I'm awaiting to finish this presentation you may see it here:

    I guess if it's worth it to you then it is. I usually save the expensive holders for valuable silver coins, but I also have like 15,000 coins, so ...
