I know you can get anything custom made, but are there dollar size chinese ( or any coin with a hole in the middle ) that will fit over an Ike Dollar?
Thanks if anyone has info! |

I remember seeing a chinese coin shell on the tango magic website, but I'm not sure if it's dollar sized... you might want to check it out.

Todd Lassen's shell from his Miracle Enjoyment Chinese Coins fit over my Morgans. Ikes and Morgans are both 38.1mm.

Ditto for Joe Mogar's site; he has 'em! And they look similar from both sides - cool.

Mogar is your man, here, I think.
I love Lassen, and own a number of his items...but his tolerances are so exact that I would be worried his MEC shell would not fit over any given dollar coin - only those that it is designed to match! I have a Morgan Lassen shell set, and the shell doesn't fit over all Morgans.

I just checked. The Mogar Dollar sized Chinese shell fits my Ikes very nicely.

I would have to agree on the tolerances on Lassen's coins, but Lassen's commercial site Sells Ike's. I bet you can get a perfectly matched set from him for a decent price. All he has to do is try the shell on and send them to you.
No knock on Joe. He's a good guy and to some extent, a shell's a shell. I just like the way the MEC looks and feels. Alan |

A quick call to Joe can best answer that. Joe is very accessible and a pleasure to speak with.
