Grand Opening November 14 at CoolSprings Galleria to Feature St. Louis Cardinals and MLB Legend Jim Edmonds; First Dedicated Cards and Collectibles Store in the U.S. to Debut a Lucky Box Vending Machine
FRANKLIN, Tenn. (Nov. 11, 2026)—Dee Jay Silver, the genre-blending DJ and producer who is the touring DJ for country music superstar Jason Aldean, has partnered with Mike and Dakota Feathers, Nashville-based owners of 96 Kickz, to open the first location of The Mint Room, a new premier destination for cards and collectibles. Opening day is November 14 at CoolSprings Galleria in Franklin, Tennessee, on the second level, across from 96 Kickz and next to Hallmark.
High-profile names such as Tom Brady, Luke Combs, Michael Jordan, and Dana White have helped bring renewed attention to the trading card and memorabilia market, reflecting the growing intersection of sports, entertainment, and collecting.
The partnership between Silver and 96 Kickz co-owners brings together three individuals with diverse yet complementary backgrounds in business leadership, corporate management, retail operations, and the entertainment industry. Their combined experience, entrepreneurial vision, and deep understanding of what it takes to build successful ventures provide a strong foundation for The Mint Room.
The store will offer an extensive selection of trading cards and collectibles, including Pokémon, One Piece, baseball, racing, basketball, football, hockey, WWE, UFC, soccer, Disney, and Marvel, along with signed and framed sports memorabilia and unique display pieces.
The staff will bring hands-on knowledge of the products and collectibles, helping customers navigate the selection, answer questions, and learn more about the hobby.
“Our focus is on the relationships we can build and the experiences we can offer,” said Mike, co-owner of The Mint Room. “The Mint Room will provide customers with a premium experience, whether they are longtime collectors or just getting started. It’s truly a place for families, built by families, and for collectors, built by collectors.”
“The Mint Room experience is going to be nothing but good vibes and good people,” Dakota added.
Dee Jay said, “Over the past year, I’ve traveled across the country, visiting card shops in every city along the way. I’ve taken inspiration from the best of what I’ve experienced, with one goal in mind: to bring something truly special to The Mint Room. More than anything, we wanted to create a place where everyone feels welcome, connections are made, and The Mint Room feels like your home for the hobby.”
Adding another distinctive attraction, The Mint Room will be the country’s first dedicated cards and collectibles store to feature a Lucky Box Vending machine. Found in casinos, airports, stadiums, and shopping centers across the country, Lucky Box Vending machines offer a high-end mystery vending experience, with potential prizes including graded collectible cards and autographed jerseys.
The Mint Room will celebrate its grand opening on Saturday, November 14, with a special appearance by St. Louis Cardinals and MLB legend Jim Edmonds. Edmonds will meet fans, sign autographs, and take pictures from 2 to 4 p.m.
The Mint Room will be open seven days a week, Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 6 p.m.
