1. Ultra PRO Premium Figurine UV Display Case 84696
Best for a taller specimen
For a taller specimen, compare the specimen and its support with this clear figurine case’s maximum contents dimensions of 4-1/2 × 3-1/2 × 6-1/4 inches. These are contents dimensions, not outside case dimensions.
2. Ultra PRO Softball and Figurine Clear Display Cube
Best for a compact, near-square specimen
For a compact, near-square mineral specimen, choose a clear tabletop display cube when both specimen and support fit within its approximate 4-1/8 × 4-1/8 × 4-1/4-inch interior.
The cube uses clear, non-PVC plastic with 3 mm thick walls and is intended for figurines and other small collectibles. It is not a mineral-specific archival enclosure.
Before ordering, verify that the specimen and its support fit within the cube’s stated interior.
