Swiss Coin Cases

Anybody have an idea of what to do with some coin cases as pictured below? I have 10 of them. 3 are marked as shown in the picture and 7 are for the next year, 1987 which also include the words, THE MATTERHORN.

My LCS didn't have any demand for them. Made of very nice, sturdy acrylic. The apmex link is for just the gold set. These also contain a hole for the 5 oz silver coin.

To remove all chance of confusion, the coins are not available. They might be found on the bottom of a really deep lake somewhere though.

Would you mind loaning me $35,000 to do so?

I'll loan you the drill & bits so you can re-drill the holes to fit 90% US coins. :mrgreen:

sharpen the edge and sell them to women as a defensive weapon. Might have to enlarge the pinky hole a bit.
