Ex Durbanite here. Now in the US. I've just started collecting SA coinage and so found this video. Being completely inexperienced I discovered the 2x2 flip and figured they just make the most sense so that's what I'm using for my currently tiny collection. Interesting and informative channel. Subscribed.
@@petercollingwood522 Awesome! You've made my day. Thanks for your support. Happy collecting!
@@penniesshillings Thanks. I jhave literally just found an 1896 ZAR 6 pence coin in one of the booths in the local Antiques mall. This is fun.
@@petercollingwood522 What a lovely find. just over 200,000 minted. They are not that easy to find.
Awesome Video, thanx for the info!!
Hi Jaco, Thanks for the video! I usually only collect definitive coins (those issued for circulation, not commemorative issues, except the proof version of the circulating coin which come in capsules) So I keep my other coins in LINDNER trays on felt bottoms. But you can buy the next size tray up that will hold the capsule in which is probably the way I'm going to go. As the downside of trays is you have to take them out to see the reverse. I do use the flips if I'm transporting a coin.
Hi Peter, thank you watching! I forgot about trays! I've seen these in the past, allowing the collector to typically interact with the coins using gloves, which is pretty safe I guess. Great way to experience the collection and each coin in its raw form. (5 out of 5 for experience! :-)) I'm also more of "business strike" person. I like the provenance of a coin and a business strike that survived decades and remained unc really fascinates me.
You're talking coins, not rounds, but how do you feel about tubes for storing silver rounds? Tubes seem quite space efficient. A 20 tube seems about the same height as something like 12 capsules. They're not as high of a user experience because you can't even see the rounds. I'm not sure if there's any extra damage risk compared to the other storage methods.
When it comes to silver stacking there is simply no better way than tubes. It's ideal for that purpose. For coins with numismatic value, it's definitely not suitable, but then again, it was never intended to store those rare Morgan dollars, etc. Thanks for watching!
Where can I get coin albums?
How much do you think a south african reserve bank 2021 100 years R5 coin worth in amazing condition
Thanks for the video! Do you have any information regarding the value of mint error coins? I have a 2016 R2 coin and the images on the front and back dont line up. Thank you!
I'm not actively collecting error coins, and the market tends to determine their values. Your best bet is to to join a reputable facebook group, post the picture there and ask the group's opinion. Be careful for scammers though.
Thanks for the help!
Thank you Jaco for a very informative video. How to store coins is a question that keeps popping up. I like to keep my coins in coin capsules, but how can I store the rest of my coins with same dates?
When storing coins in capsules, is it not better to have inners inside the capsules or does it not really matter? Thanks Jaco
Yes, the inners definitely helps if you're standardizing on capsule size. If a coin is placed in a capsule that is too large, it might (just might) get a nick if the capsule falls or is handled really harshly. In terms of the duplicate dates, that is easy, I'd use Mylar flips!
Thank you Jaco, I am looking forward to your next video😃
