Does anyone else change their selection of displayed coins to mark holidays or special occasions? Here is a pic of the items going into my display case for Remembrance Day.  Please share your own photos if you do this sort of theme based display. |

The Legacy set of 3 privy marked Silver Maple Leafs (D-Day, VE, and VJ) would round out your collection nicely

Do you have the $5 2005 privy mark coin that was made for the European sets?

I'm interested in seeing how you display your coins. I don't display much of my collection, but it seems like a nice idea. Do you have a custom case? A dedicated shelf on a bookcase?

@coin_chick: They've gotta be out to lunch... $250 for the WWII SML is way too much, even with the privy leafs.

I know that one is way overpriced. It just had a nice close up picture of the coin.
I have one of them and I was thinking of selling it to someone who would appreciate
it like I think CC-Ottawa would :)

That one is on my wish list Coin Chick. They come up on ebay occasionally but the price is always prohibitive.  Quote:
