Looks amazing. Displays always seem to ad a little grandeur to items. I like that you have them grouped from a specific site.

That is a very nice looking display case. I also like the burlap back round. I always enjoy displaying my finds. For me, that is part of the fun of the hobby. If you have a chance to locate one, or subscribe to Western and Eastern Treasures, check out the November 2017 issue. My article "Do you Display" ? appears in this issue, along with one written by Quindy Robertson. Congrats on your finds, and a very nice display. Ron

Looks good. The "Americana" nicknacks put into shadow box displays like that, are great for when friends and relative come over. And strangely, it's the odd-ball stuff (collar discs, skeleton keys, etc..) that have the eye appeal. NOT the coins, haha

Very nice display you've done up there, congrats. Liking the burlap backing instead of the standard red/black.

That display looks amazing! If you don’t mind me asking, what are the discs that say US and have sabers and numbers on them.
