    Cazkaboom One for all, all for me.

    Disclaimer: I did not buy any sets from Littleton Coin Company

    So, if you are like me, you are proud of your collection and want to show it off... As for me, I hang a lot up in my room.

    But up until today, I had always been ticked off because I can't hang up my pre-65 proof sets or any of my mint sets. Today, while going through my coins, I dropped one of those pesky "Americana Series Vanishing Classics Collections" with junk silver coins in them not worth a dang.

    I tried putting it back together, then it hit me like a wrecking ball to Homer Simpson :D


    Here's a crappy photo of said set.

    Crack the junk open.

    Place it in the plastic case and display as you wish.

    And just because, I'll show you the whole banister/wall with a crummy pic.

    And a description of what's there. On the upper left is a 66 and 67 SMS Set. Under it is a beautiful junk set of nickel types of the 20th century filled with culls (Will be broken out soon)

    On the banister is my M1 replica rifle I use for Armed Drill Team in JROTC. A wood carving of the peace medal shown on the reverse of the reverse of a 2004 westward journey nickel. In front is a hand-assembled set including a morgan dollar, barber coins, and a IHC.
    To the right is a 1976 Proof set, a 1915 Barber half PCGS VG-08 and a 1981 Proof set.

    On the top left is a 1968 proof set followed by a 1970 proof set and followed by a 1995 proof set.

    And dead center is Josh Hill, a well known dirtbike racer.
