yocal New Member Denmark 1 Posts	Posted 07/10/2011 12:49 pm Hi there, I'm looking for something that looks like this: And for reference, I tried to make it out of cardboard first myself so you had a chance to see what I was talking about :-) It's a business-card sized piece of cardboard which has room for a 1.5" (38.1mm) coin. It could either be centeret, or like my example, moved over to the left, so it can bend and stand like a coin easel. Is this already made? Or will I have to do the cutting myself? :o) I know this isn't really protecting the coin, but that's not the intention. It's for a business card that I'm designing, and the cardboard-part is the finishing touch :-) Hope that someone here can help me. Best Regards from Denmark! // Yoc. Report this Post to the Staff

Not the cheapest solution, but if you only have a couple coins you want displayed. this may work. Report this Post to the Staff

Landude Valued Member United States 223 Posts	Posted 07/10/2011 9:13 pm How about using slabs? Something like Littleton does with the coin and a description to the side of it. Yes it will be bulkier then a business card but people surely will remember it.. Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 07/10/2011 9:25 pm From what you showed you already have a great start to make a new buisness. Make a few more prototypes and start contacting coin making item companies like Whitman to see if intereseted. Just in case check out how to get a patent. And if you do get rich on this, remember me.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 07/11/2011 09:59 am Shouldn't be too hard to make them yourself, out of the materials of your own choice. The arc cut in the cardboard example pictured here can be made with a woodworker's turning gouge. They come in a variety of radii. For the best material to make it from, I suggest an inert plastic sheet. Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10034 Posts	Posted 07/11/2011 1:25 pm Uhhh... cardboard = humidty retention = ruining luster of coin. Take this into consideration. Cool idea!
