I like the little divider every 5 cents in the 2nd from bottom photo.
That design is likely in response to people fitting in more than 50
pennies into the C shaped pincher open design. Kind of a clunky clasp
as compared to the original design. Patent Pending in 1980.
Nice for collectors. Great for organizing.

I mentioned earlier about rolling pennies for my folks, I remember now I had stopped in at the bank to get the rollers and the teller set them on the counter for me to take with an elastic band on them. Now could you imagine the thoughts that went flailing through my head at that moment, PINK and I'm about 15. I asked for a paper bag and they had one lol. It's cool how the simplest things can sometimes bring back some funny memories.
