I am a coin collector and have some proof sets from the mint that I want to
put on display. Has anyone built a wall mount case or shadow box to do this?
I have been thinking about how to do it. I think it would need to be
something that would hold the mint cases in an upright position and have a
glass or plastic cover. If you have done this I would like to hear your
thoughts. e-mail is as seen ( I have the spam to prove it!)
Thanks, Bruce

I'm a coin collector too. I collect 'em untill I've got roll of
'em, then thke the roll to the bank, and change it for bills.
Best eaxmple I've seen of something like what you want is in the
Smithsonian. They have glass or plastic on both sides, so you can see
both sides of the coins.
I've seen one somewhere, that has a pivot, top & bottom, so you can
spin it, to see both sides of the coin.
Google search would probably turn up something, pretty easily.
