Once I started collecting Perth Mint Kookaburras, I wanted more than a way to put coins away. I wanted to see the collection properly when I took it out. Finding a partial set in a My Coinbox prompted a closer look at these wooden boxes from a family-run business in Bavaria.
Two sizes, different jobs
The review compares a large universal box with space for up to 60 one-ounce silver coins and a smaller version holding up to 36, using the tray arrangements discussed in the video. Capacity depends on the actual trays and capsules, so the number on a product description is only the start of planning a layout.
Capsule dimensions matter as much as coin diameter. A coin which is nominally the right size can still sit badly if its capsule is too wide or tall for the recess. Check the complete combination before buying a box for an entire series.
Count the delivered cost
My recorded December 2025 costs were £94 for the large box with three trays and £70 for the small box with three trays, including delivery, VAT, customs duty and handling fees. They are purchase examples from the video, not current prices.
Those additional costs are relevant when comparing an overseas supplier with a domestic alternative. The description also mentions a viewer discount, but I would check any code and its terms directly before relying on it now.
Display and secure storage are different things
A well-made box makes a collection easier to inspect and enjoy, but it adds bulk compared with tubes. The trays can be useful as a bridge between presentation and secure storage: bring the collection out to look at it, then return it to an appropriate storage arrangement.
The attraction is practical as well as decorative. A consistent layout makes gaps in a series obvious and gives each coin room to be appreciated. The review is about that everyday experience, not a claim that an attractive wooden box is a security product.
