Hi Ed and all,

Why not go to the local  pharmacy and buy gelatin capsules. Small items 
can be stuffed into those and  placed in a small ryker mount along with a 
label and description information  at a fairly reasonable cost. I've done 
this for a long time and sold to many  adults, kids and so  forth.

Hello  Ed, Al, and members,
 
Here is how I package thin-sections:  _http://www.impactika.com/tspack.jpg_

Those small hard-plastic boxes are really made for silver ingots. They are  
just the right size for a thin-section, with a piece of felt, and the label. 
And  they close very tightly.  
You could just as well put a bunch of  small fragments, or a very thin tiny 
slice. Kids would not be able to open it  too easily, and the label would stay 
with it. 
Email me off-list if you want  to know where to get those boxes.
