Best storage options for the Silver Koala and Kookaburra

The Perth Mint's Silver Koala and Silver Kookaburra are one-ounce bullion coins with designs that change every year. Both are 40.6 mm across, larger than most one-ounce silver coins, so they need the H40 direct fit capsule rather than a standard 39 mm holder.

1 oz Silver Koala (40.6 mm)

1 oz Silver Kookaburra (40.6 mm)

Good to know: The 40.6 mm diameter is the same as an American Silver Eagle and a pre-2013 silver Britannia, and larger than a 39 mm coin, so match the H40 capsule to avoid a coin that will not seat.
