Description
This is a stand made specifically for displaying the coins found in the Pokemon TCG. The base was inspired by a Master Ball design, and the Regular Coin display (~30mm diameter ones found currently released in Asia and released pre-2013 worldwide) has a Poke Ball design, the Large Coin display (~34.5mm diameter coins released in the West post-2013) has a Great Ball design, and the Jumbo Coin display (~51.5mm diameter coins currently being released in the West) has an Ultra Ball design. This way, even if the stand only has one coin on it, it is readily apparent what size that coin is supposed to be without needing another object for reference.
If you are interested in printing your own coins to display, you can check out my personal collection of created coins here:

There are two versions of the model available for both those with access to multicolor printing, and those without.
If you have the capability of opening .3mf files, I highly recommend you use the one I have provided, as everything is already set up there. There are enough parts to print two stands, but of course you’re free to delete one of them if you so choose.
The three display faces only have one version each; they don’t change shape between the single extruder and AMS versions. Of course, you don’t need to print them out with their respective multicolor Poke Ball designs, but if you do, make sure you enable the prime tower. They’re so small that any miniscule leakage between nozzle swaps will severely impact the quality. Make sure your filament is dry as well!
The SingleExtruderBase has separate parts that can be put together using glue, and the AMSBase just prints all at once.
After that is assembled, the three displays can be glued on by lining up the squares on the back of the displays with the square pegs on the base. Do so in accordance with the shown images.
Finally, gently rest any coins you want to display and photograph on their respective displays, and snap away!
