if the *metal* plate were in a fire with this thing around it, this tamper thing wouldn't really work, and also, it could be imaged with an x-ray to read the fireproof seed card.
i would make it out of steel, line it with x-ray resistant lead on the inside, use a sheet of quartz glass for the viewer and make the beads from colored quartz glass.
the tamper resistance mechanism is pretty awesome, but it's ironic to make it out of plastic when the thing inside is fireproof.
