[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1600738, member: 112"]Yes, I already gave you a link to a holder that will work. The ring type Air-Tites will fit those odd sized coins. But if you don't like Air-Tites, then use these - [url]http://www.amosadvantage.com/scottonline/product.asp?category=CWCHP&part_no=CWCH10P&find_category=CWCHP&find_description=all+products&find_part_desc=[/url] It is the foam insert in both the Air-Tites and the Coin World holders that accommodates the odd sizes. No, their holders are based on standard sizes. The reason you are having a problem, the reason your cons don't fit, is because back then things like a precise size (diameter) were not as precise as they are today. For example, the size of a quarter is supposed to be 24.3 mm. But, that size can vary slightly when the planchets are made or when the coin is struck.

The foam will allow slightly larger coins, slightly smaller, or correctly sized coins, to fit. And fit correctly.[/QUOTE]
