Coin wrapper cutter

Abstract

The invention comprises a device to aid in the removal of the plastic or paper cover from the rolls of coins. This device is made of an elongated form with a groove on the upper surface of the elongated form. Either a cutting point or a boss will project from the base of the groove. The boss and cutting point are connected via a pivot point in the hollow of said elongated form. In the resting stage the boss is pushed into the groove by a spring. In action as that boss is pushed into the hollow by a roll of coins, the cutting point is urged via the pivot point into the groove to score the cover of the coin roll. A second embodiment of the invention is a processor to score the plastic or paper cover of rolls of coins. The processor is an elongated structure with a groove on the top side. Projecting from the base of that groove is a cutting blade which is covered by a mask. That mask covers the cutting blade because it is positioned to be superior to the cutting blade by dimples. The dimples are projections from left and right triggers. These triggers are urged to a closed position by a spring. As both the left and right triggers are outwardly expanded by a wrapped role of coins both dimples are urged away from the mask by cambers allowing mask to be depressed into the base of the groove exposing a cutting blade which will score the wrapper of the roll of coins as the roll is moved across the cutting blade.
