I am starting to collect 50p and £2 coins of the uk (different designs ect) I got a couple from ebay in 2 slightly different capsules which I would like to identify as i would like to buy more.

its the bottom one I'm looking to id, its thicker than the top one, and totally smooth around the edge, whereas the top has a beveled indented edge

The Lindner capsules are certainly like the top type with the lip on both edges. Lighthouse, Lindner and Safe (the main German manufacturers) all supply capsules with the lip. I don't know where the others come from.

The Lindner ones are the best in my opinion.

The bottom one appears to be lighthouse.
