Coin Wrappers

Res

Does anyone know of a supplier of wrappers for foreign coins - specifically Euros and pounds (pence)? Thanks.

If you merely want them wrapped and a known number in each
roll you can use any wrapper that's larger than the coin and then
fold over the excess on itself before crimping the end.

You can even use a smaller wrapper and the coins will stay secur-
ely at an angle.

Otherwise I'd try googling it. I can even find Ike wrappers but
euros shouldn't be tough if you don't mind the postage.

Thanks - I was hoping there might be a U.S. supplier. Google hasn't been a help, believe it or not.

A few years ago on a Baltic cruise I visited banks in several countries. None had coins wrapped US style, most used small cellophane bags.

The only wraps I could ever get from the bank back in Germany (both in DM and € times) were just paper sheets cut to size with the label printed on.. you had to make it into a tube yourself.

I've been to a few Brit banks while on trips there. All I've ever received was plastic bags of coins - no rolls. The last time I saw rolls and tubes at a bank there was before decimalization. I use the following US sizes for certain denominations:

Dime - new halfpenny, silver threepence
Cent - sixpence
Nickel - farthing, new penny and nickel-brass threepence
Quarter - shilling/5 new pence (the larger sized ones)
SBA/Saca/Pres dollar - old halfpenny.
Half Dollar - Old penny and florin/10p (larger size)

Some of these will rattle a bit but most are reasonable fits.

Thanks everyone.

I just made my own out of plain paper.
