Plastic PMG US Coins

Hello!

I have been looking for plastic coins that will fit in my Dansco Coin Albums where I have blanks for slabbed coins. I've tried all kinds of them and then found one type that is the perfect size and thickness. However, I cannot find them anywhere (online or in person). I've tried every source I know of. I would appreciate any help as to where I can get them.

They look like this

Is this some kind of April fool's joke?

 

It't not a joke. There are folks who collect play money and movie prop money.

 

Not a joke. I have holes in a couple of albums where the hole filler is a slabbed coin. The holes drive me nuts.

 

I have found many stash's of play money at antique stores. I would try there.

 

People sell printed acrylic disks on fleaBay too. But a little bing-fu takes us to

Not a joke Sal. As an antique dealer I can assure you that if it was made there is someone that collects it.

 

Thanks

I clicked on the link and now all the adds are for play money.

 

You are welcome. You needed a new hobby: errors on play money!!!

 

It's not a bad idea. I use mint set tokens but they aren't ideal.

 

I like that. I finally resorted to using a common date coin of the correct denomination in my book. My three cent Dansco has five holes plugged with alternate years due to slabbed coins filling that void. Good thing it is a three cent catalog and my eyes aren't good enough to read the dates anymore.

 

I Agree!

 

Now I am getting bank supply adds. They won't stop. LOL

 

Thanks, folks. A member directed me to where I found the exact version of the plastic coins I needed. I tried four different plastic coins, but only one manufacturer made them with the thickness and circumference that would fit in the Danscos slots. Thanks for all of the input and suggestions.

 

Thanks for the suggestions. I saw these and tried them but neither fit correctly in the slots. I did find a solution from another member, however.

 

Not a joke. I wanted something to put in the Dansco slots where I have slabbed coins instead of raw coins. The coins made by PGM (the picture) fit perfectly for all denominations. I know others who collect the plastic coins, but that was not my intent. I just wanted a hole plugged.

 

Exactly! I'm so anal the empty holes were driving me nuts. I printed out copies of the coins I created and then cut them to the right size, but I didn't like that look either.

 

I'm not sure I'm into taking an album made of archival-grade materials and putting a sticker in there of, um, well, random origin and materials for the long term.
