    Bought this holder because of a posting on the BST forum - it's well made and makes a cool display in person.

    It really is an attractive display... I wonder what it would look like with real Peace Dollars? image

    I can't remember the board member that makes those holders, but he does a GREAT job... and while singing praise, DCarr did do a GREAT job on the Fake Peace dollars. I noticed ANACS is slabbing them as MS69! image

    Bought the top 1822 CBH raw on the BST, which also happens to be the very first CBH I ever bought and launched me into collecting this series, now making me completely NUTS for CBH's!!!

    Was offered the bottom 1822 CBH from a fellow forum member, which I immediately bought due to it's amazing eye appeal, and which is now my set piece for the date.
