    Nothin' too special. This is my silver collection as of August 2015:

    I'm expecting another piece in the mail soon. Once it arrives I shall share it in the antiques board like all my other bits and pieces.

    Very nice collection, Shangas! Do you display them together? They would look great in one of those glass-topped tables.

    I wish I DID have somewhere to display them properly, Bakers :p But I'm not that lucky. I DO have a display-case, one of those flat, lie-down ones, but I only use it for public events (fairs and shows and stuff).

    The majority of my silver lives inside my Victorian jewelry box:

    In case you're wondering, the belt at the very front is NOT silver. If it was, it'd be worth a mint. But it is about 120 years old. It was my great-grandmother's.

    I have noticed that the Gods on High have deemed my humble photograph worthy of being featured...

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Very nice, and worthy of being featured!

    I'm flattered I really am. I didn't think anybody would find it interesting.

    Shangas, I remember you telling us about your Grandmother's belt.
    It was interesting reading!

    Monetarily, they're not worth much. But culturally they are rare as hen's teeth.
