There is a good chance that I may never be able to afford to hunt the Big-5, so in my view I did the next best thing. Last time I was in South Africa I made sure I got some quality bills with all the Big-5s and framed the bills to go in my trophy room/office. :)

Looks good, great idea
 
Like the display. Want to display the Rand that I have also.
 
You have inspired me to copy cat your idea shamelessly.
Very cool.
 
Have it. FYI, I went to Hobby Lobby and had them framed them. with their assistance, I picked the frame and mat, and this is the end result. :)

Nice. I think I'll also steal that idea. :ROFLMAO:
 
Now this is a trophy that I can display anywhere in the house without my boss’ approval. Stolen! I hope the RSA government won’t catch the wind of this before their currency will flee the country. ;)
 
Heck of a good idea! Very nice display
 
What an awesome idea.

Way cool! Nice job!!! I might have to do the same for my gun room, looks like you have started a trend lol
 
Very nice!

I've got them all now, but haven't, yet, started on a display.


RSA has now started minting 1 oz. gold "Big 5" coins, similar to Krugerands.

I haven't bought one yet.


Thoughts???
 
I think it would look great in your new trophy room. (y)

You bet! Already thinking about the best spot to hang it ;-).

This is very well done!!! Don’t give up on the Big 5. I have not spent a fortune pursuing this goal as I have shown in my postings
 
That's really cool! Good idea
 
Very cool, thanks for sharing!
 
I have a couple of the bills, next year I’m going to make a point to get the rest and “borrow” your idea!
