Packing coins for shipping

Piano1Piano1 Posts: 233 ✭✭✭

Hello, and thanks for your thoughts.

I am looking for a place to buy these cardboard self-adheasive enclosures to ship coins in when I sell on eBay. I like to wrap my sales thoroughly and I had just a few of these left over from years ago. Can anyone tell me where they might be available (or if they are still made)?

Thanks.

    @Piano1 Don't forget the Mylar inside to prevent the slab chip from being read by a cell phone.

    Good morning, Namvet69, and thanks for the heads up. I never even gave this a thought when I mail out a certified coin!! I'll be wrapping any future slab sales more carefully in the future for sure.

    I appreciate your keeping me informed of this potential shipping hazard!

    Regular (non-metallized) Mylar will NOT WORK for blocking RFID tags. Plain Mylar is non-conductive and transparent to radio waves. Use aluminum foil to block radio signals.

    Just another thank you post to Namvet69 and element 159. I have a slab that will be shipped out tomorrow morning so again, I appreciate your comments and concern. I guess a guy can't be too careful these days.

    Much appreciated!! Piano1

    Hi, JWP.

    Yup, been to Wizard Coin Supplies a few times. I like the company a lot and somewhere I have a coupon. I'll be needing supplies shortly so I will be there.

    Thanks for the reminder.
