Velvet lined cases for ancient coins-source needed.

Does anyone know the source for the velvet lined cases often used by dealers in ancient coins. I believe they are made in Italy and are velvet over wood (Not Flocked!). I seem to recall that a US dealer by the name of Jencius? once dealt in them, but that was 20-25 years ago. Your help is needed. Thanks!

Those are Abafil cases. I beleive Ed Waddell deals in them here in the U.S. at: http://www.coin.com

Else try: http://www.abafil.com I believe.

What Civitas said. I bought one of the slimline cases from Waddell about 4-5 years ago.

Thanks for the info. The Abafil cases were exactly what I was looking for.
