My old coins are becoming scattered and very unorganized , time to take action and clean up this mess. So I decided to make my own coin box(treasure chest). First thing I did was to come up with a design and size of the chest. I would like it to hold 2000-2500 coins. Next I got the wood. I am using 70yr. old birch that came from a antique hutch, dont worry it was in bad shape. So I gabbed my tape measure and began cutting and after 3 hours this is where I 'm at. I still have alot to do as you can see. I will update with more pic's as I work on it. Well here it is complete and filling up fast. I still need to get about 600 more coin holders, I used all that I had. It took longer than I thought to finnish but I think it was worth it. For some reason I could'nt edit my other post on building the chest. Hope you all like it I do. Sorry I could'nt show all the pictures not enough room.
