My dad bought me one of your holders (in spalted maple), and it is absolutely beautiful! It's a wonderful way to display coins - I've gotten compliments from a ton of people! I'm sure I'll be getting a few more so I can display some other coins... I'll definitely pass the word along.

Thank you Vast136 and welcome to the forum. You can always check the holders available here (bottom of the page) or get with Susan or check with ebay seller Bobby131313 for holders available at any given time. I am really hoping these catch on as hiding coins we worked so hard to finally own really doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me? Again thank you and really glad you like the spalted maple as it is one of my favorite finished woods (sometimes hard to find)! Have a rare Hawaiian Koa going to Susan this week plus a Granadillo, Chinese Paulownia and Walnut!

Susan now has the RARE Hawaiian Koa holder as well as the others mentioned above. Just don't ask me which slabs they hold as I don't have a clue now! Get with Susan!

Please forgive me for bringing this post back up but I have to announce the fact that I have been busy and some accomplishments have been made.
First a new Security Wedge Holder has been designed and made for dealers. Those should make their first public appearance in Baltimore this weekend as the first few are due at ND's this afternoon. The holders can lie in a space no taller than two and a half inches or the slab can be turned 180 degrees and the holder becomes a free standing holder for a larger space or shelf. Very secure way to hand a valuable slab to a customer and it will eliminate a switch made by the customer.
Next up a simple but attractive proof set holder to display that special proof set or birth year set.
And last but not least, and the main reason I pulled this post out of past history, was we finally, just his afternoon, came up with a final design and first prototype of a free standing holder for AIRTITES!!! All the thought and work that went into this endeavor only to be right in front of us the whole time. This just fries my mind (whats left of it) Should start producing these in the next couple of weeks as soon as I can locate a dependable supplier for the woods required. All three of these new holders (proof set, security wedge and airtite) will be available ONLY in Red Oak or Walnut at least at this time. Hopefully I will get samples to Susan in the near future! Just wanted you all to know I have actually been doing something!!!

I will have a few different Holders at Baltimore (mostly for dealers). I have a few on hand, and can attest to the fact that these are incredible!

Thanks ND and good luck on that buying spree!!! I just hope both packages found you today and you are pleased with the design? Thank your customers for making the requests and hopefully I have come up with something they can use? Guess time will tell!

Lim, we have no problem shipping overseas. These are running between 1 and 2 pounds to ship (the different woods are different weights). One pound to Australia via Airmail Letter Post is $10.00 USD; two pounds is $15.00 USD. These won't fit into the Global Priority flat rate envelopes.

Some of these are listed on the site and more are listed in our ebay store.

Susan is correct lim118! My new motto is "If you have a slab, I have the holder!" Actually, as I mentioned I will be getting samples of the new holders to Susan as quickly as possible as the new designs that have been completed have been shipped to ND for the Baltimore show. I am STILL dreaming of a full time job in my little woodshop and a huge boost of free publicity in Baltimore was not going to hurt me any! If you have proof sets, slabs or anything else encased in plastic I can adjust the sizes accordingly but it may mean you will have to ship an "empty" one over here so there will be no room for error. Sure would be great to put some "hand made in Indiana" in the great down under! You can always email me or get with Susan and we would be glad to work with our friends waaaaaaaaaaaaay down there!!!
