    I like it! :)
    You should try to sell it at an art show, it might surprise you. ;)

    Thanks! Neat idea, except that it's only being held together by gravity, at the moment. ;)

    I stuck a bamboo stake through the half dollar holes to hold the stack together while I twisted it into a spiral, then removed the stake before taking photos. I'd have to spend a lot of time gluing in order to actually make it permanent...

    Very trippy. Great pedestal for a special piece.

    I like it. I was trying to think of how many coins were in all those holders (5 per x _____)

    If you do want to glue it, I would avoid Gorilla Glue. It expands as it dries.

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

    Very cool, now add the water feature for a spinning water fall.

    Water supply from the bottom and up through the Kennedy slots.
