Reversible coin holder

A method of carving a coin, comprising:

• providing two blocks having a top side and a opposite side;
• said two blocks having at least four edges;
• said two blocks having a thickness measured from said top side to said opposite side that is less than the distance between either two opposite edges of said at least four edges;
• said top side and said bottom side each having at least four recesses made to fit various coin circumferences;
• each said four recess having at least one nested step for one side of the coin to rest against;
• at least two rail guides in each said at least four edges;
• at least two guide rails inserted into said at least two rail guides;
• said at least two guide rails running in a diction parallel with each other as well as perpendicular to the two faces that are to clamp the particular coin to be held;
• at lease one screw between said two blocks for the purpose of biasing said at least two blocks together;
• setting said coin to be held within one of said at least four recesses;
• turning said screw;
• and
• caring out a metal working operation on said coin.

A device of holding various sizes of coins, said device comprising:

• providing at least two jaws with a multiple of clamping faces to each jaw, a first side, and a second side;
• a fastening aperture which allows a fastener to fasten said at least two jaws to a clamping device that incorporates a biasing means to bias said at least two jaws together;
• said at least two jaws having a recess on said first side and said second side adjacent to each of said multiple of front clamping faces;
• each said recess being in the shape and size of a portion of the outside edge of the coin to be held in that recess;
• each said recess having at least one nested step for one side of the coin to rest against while being held;
• said device includes a flipping-rotating bottom first and bottom second sides that allows said at least two jaws to be flipped over or rotated so that another set of said multiple of front clamping faces are facing each other when after flipping-rotating said device;
• and
• said biasing mean includes a screw running perpendicular to two of the said multiple of front clamping faces that are currently being utilized for holding the coin.
