Frequently asked questions
What size capsule fits the Australian Lunar series?
The Australian Lunar series comes in these sizes and matching capsules: 1 oz Gold Lunar (32 mm); 1 oz Silver Lunar (around 40 mm); 1/10 oz Gold Lunar (16 mm). Match the capsule’s inside diameter to your coin.
What is the best way to store a Australian Lunar series?
Lunar coins are minted to limited mintages and the annually changing design makes complete sets desirable, so capsule storage that preserves each year's reverse is well worth it. Silver Lunar sizes vary by series, so measure if unsure. A PVC-free acrylic capsule, either direct fit or black ring, protects the coin from handling, dust and air.
