Abstract
A freestanding coin holder capable of displaying a coin such that all sides, namely the front, back, and circumferential edge are viewable. First and second panel members are connected in opposing face-to-face relation such that a coin may be received in a generally cylindrical and laterally projecting coin-receiving chamber defined by optically transparent portions so that the front and back of the coin (e.g. heads side and tails side) as well as the circumferential edge of the coin are clearly visible. A base functions as a stand thereby allowing the coin holder to be disposed in a vertically free-standing manner.
Claims10
A coin holder and display device for the storage and display of collectable coins, said device comprising:
- a display structure having a top portion, a bottom portion, and opposing first and second sides, said first and second sides including optically transparent portions;
- said display structure defining an internal chamber adapted for receiving a coin, said chamber defined by said optically transparent portions of said first and second sides, and an optically transparent circumferential wall projecting from said first side;
- whereby all sides of a coin received within said chamber are visible through said optically transparent portions and said optically transparent circumferential wall.
A coin holder and display device for the storage and display of collectable coins, said device comprising:
- a display structure having opposing first and second side surfaces;
- said first side surface defining a generally cylindrical projecting portion, said cylindrical projecting portion including a first generally circular planar wall and a circumferential wall;
- said second side surface defining a generally cylindrical depression in registration with said cylindrical projecting portion, said cylindrical depression terminating in a second generally circular planar wall;
- a coin receiving chamber defined by said first and second circular planar walls and said circumferential wall;
- said first and second planar walls and said circumferential wall formed from optically transparent material;
- whereby opposing sides of a coin received within said coin receiving chamber is visible through said first and second planar walls and the edge of said coin is visible through said circumferential wall.
A coin holder and display device for the storage and display of collectable coins, said device comprising:
- a body having a top portion a bottom portion and opposing first and second sides, said body including an internal coin-receiving chamber, said chamber at least partially projecting from said first side of said body, said chamber defined by generally circular opposing planar side walls and a circumferential wall projecting from said first side of said body;
- said opposing planar side walls and said circumferential wall formed from optically transparent material;
- whereby opposing sides of a coin received within said coin receiving chamber is visible through said opposing planar walls and the edge of said coin is visible through said circumferential wall;
- said body bottom portion including means for supporting said body in a free standing configuration.
