That's pretty cool! Are those air-tite capsules and hat pins? (Now I'm tempted to do one myself.)

Thanks! Yeah I wanted to include all my favorite U.S. coin designs. I was trying to include a small typeset of U.S. denominations half dollar, dollar and quarters. I'm also Filipino-American so the U.S.-Philippine coins are my favorite designs for sure. It was cool summarizing the history from the Spanish period to American occupation and independence (the second row) in coin form. I wanted a way to be able to appreciate my favorite designs passively when I'm at my desk. It was fun organizing it and adding to it as I went.

 Wow, that is nice! I thought about doing something like that for my set of Franklins. I've got some really nice hardwood veneers that I can use so now that we're basically home bound here in California maybe I'll give it a try. You've inspired me! And.......

Haha thanks! Actually I got inspired too by a display I saw a while back. I was like whoah thats a good way to appreciate a collection and not just hide them away in a box or binder.

I like it!  I think the silver looks great against the black background. If I may make one small suggestion, it would be to change out the white foam spacers to black to match the rest. Thank you for sharing and welcome to CCF!

...made me wonder how you had that displayed; I just assumed it'd be hung on the wall.. is it hanging or lying on something?

Really nice. I know you plan on actually displaying that but around where I live, I would vanish withing a short period of time. Hopefully you have it well guarded.
