Lookin' good!  By the way, how does the frame hold the coin? Does it work like a giant 2x2? |

It may or may not be a damaging plastic. Smell funny? Maybe since two f the three are "failed" US coinage, you need to put a couple other failed series in there, FE's come to mind, Shield nickels another. Do like the display no matter what is in there. |

A wise choice for a test. No great loss if they do tone strangely, but it won't take that long to notice if they do. I still doubt you'll keep your favorite gold in a similar holder on top of your desk. Where do you work?  |

But, since I didn't know the material not taking a chance. No gold or silver going in, so I will tell you where I work... Inside.  Thanks for the comments everyone.

Thanks scopru. It will look good in the midst of all the mountains of clutter on my desk at work. Where I work it would take a walk the first day.  |

Thanks guys. I tried putting the Ike at the top, but it was a little out of balance.
I work in a good place with decent people. Only thing taken is a drink and a sandwich once in a while. I guess we all get hungry now and then.

It is amazing how many inanimate objects "find life" at work.  |

It's a silicone sheet, with the two halves of the frame held together with magnets. I ended up using capsules for mine, because Half Dimes and such are too thin to be held in place. So I can't speak to the long term nature. However it's silicone which should be inert. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ |

I ordered a few of these a while back. I put the coins in air tites first.
They make nice displays for 1 oz. silver bullion coins.
