Just finished finding all the parts I needed to put this set together. Had to do some customizing and I am happy how it turned out.
Took a little bit to finish up and thought I would share.
Wish my photo skills were better.

Beautiful! I'm impressed! Those labels really add the perfect finishing touch as well, you printed them? I recently was on the hunt for some way to make labels as well, couldn't find gold metallic paper but did find silver with adhesive backing at a craft store.

Thank you for your comments! I do not think there is another one like it.
@Dcadon , yes it was a sub box from the Conservation series. I hunted around for one and was lucky to get it for free.
@wildflowerAB , I had them lasered on a brass stock from a engraving shop .

Nice presentation.
The coins look better than the image/rendering on the Mint website.
Frosting is good for contrast.
Chunky 1/2 kg coins.

Nice coins, I love the presentation box! The Cougar head will also appear as a privy on a silver maple leaf in September!

Oh my gosh, RCM needs talent like yours to add greater appeal by improved display options for all their series!

The ruggedness of your case perfectly suits the theme as well.

Thank you all for the kind comments! Definitely a great community.

@Silveroid- you are always making me chuckle. Love the Call of the "WOW" comment! Thanks!

@wildflowerAB- I have been trying design some custom packaging/display options for a different
variety of collections. It is not an easy path trying to find a supplier to get
behind a person. Will keep on keepin on though. Thanks for your kind words!

I wonder why they couldn't supply a box for this set - same size, quantity, and price, but sold as 3 individual coins only. I too have all three.

Dcadon- That was a problem that I had with the mint. They started this series first , then they put out the first 2 coins in the series(Wolf and Cougar). Stopped there and then produced the full Conservation series with the subscription box. Left me a little perturbed that they left the Call of the Wild series to hang in the wind , without a box .
Glad to hear and see you have the whole series as well, nice! It is a beautiful set. Congrats!

Great presentation. I wish the Mints would do more customizing such as you have. Lovely set.
