The Lighthouse Standard: A Legacy of German Engineering

Lighthouse (Leuchtturm) was the worldwide norm of coin protection since 1917 and relied upon by even the most discriminating coin collectors in the world. Based on German engineering, the quality, precision, durability, and decades of expertise in materials science are built into every capsule. Lighthouse products are not generic holders- they are designed and manufactured to protect numismatic treasures to be enjoyed by generations.

When you go with Lighthouse, you go with more than just storage: it is a commitment to excellence in design, reliability, and archival preservation.

Uncompromising Material Science for True Archival Safety

The only worst enemy of the long-term value of coins is inappropriate storage. Ordinary plastics that contain Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) may release caustic chemical softeners, causing a certain form of permanent damage to the surface of a coin, due to corrosion.

The Lighthouse capsules render this risk null and void. They are designed out of extra-strong, scratch-resistant acrylic (PMMA), a material known for its extreme clarity and resistance to chemicals. This high-quality material is:

• 100% Free of PVC, Acids, and Softeners: Ensures that no harmful chemicals will ever touch your coins, making these capsules truly archival-friendly containers for choosing to store your coins in the long term.
• Chemically Inert: The acrylic is inert and will not cause discoloration or toning to the coin, leaving a preservation of the coin's natural luster and patina.
• Extremely Scratch-Resistant: The hard acrylic surface prevents fine scratches and scuffs, so your coin is guaranteed to have a crystal-clear readability of the detailed features of your coins years later.

Precision Design for Flawless Protection and Display

Each Lighthouse capsule has been designed to strike a tasteful balance between protective and presentable.

• Locking Mechanism: 2 pieces fit snugly to each other, creating a tight seal against airborne contaminants. The design takes the form that it can be easily opened without damaging the coin.
• Perfect Fit: The 39mm capsule is an almost-exact fit on 1 oz standard silver and standard copper rounds. This exactness eliminates rattling and clanging, as well as micro-abrasions to delicate surfaces, which can often be found with lower quality holders.

How to Use Your Lighthouse Capsules

1. To protect your coins: Hold them with the edges, preferably with clean cotton gloves that are clean.
2. Opening the Capsule: Extract the two halves by prying them open. The secure rim execution is beginning to get hold of and tear apart.
3. Insert Your Coin: Insert your 39mm coin into the base. Our direct-fit design provides a stable, secure hold.
4. Seal the Capsule: Fit the cover in place and press along the edge towards the center, and a loud snap indicates a secure seal is present.
5. To Open Again: A capsule opener or narrow implement can be carefully opened by prying around the seam, but one must be careful not to damage it.
