The coin holder according to the present invention has an effect that an arrangement or an ornament such as a picture can be configured by the coin arrangement itself by arranging the coins based on the designated information. Also, until the installation of the specified coin is completed, it is not clear what pattern or pattern will be formed by the coin, so the user should continue to install the coin while imagining the state after completion. Has the effect of being able to.
Furthermore, if coins are mounted as specified, a preset amount can be saved, so that money can be stored in the same manner as a piggy bank. In this way, there is an effect that it can be performed while enjoying completion of the pattern and reaching the set amount.

Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described. The present invention, as an example, is intended for painting and other purposes depending on the color of the arranged coins, the intensity of the color, etc., by attaching coins to the means having a flat display unit such as a sheet or panel according to the specified information. The design is displayed.
Fig.1 (a) (b) is explanatory drawing of the panel 1 which mounts | wears with a coin. FIG. 1A is an explanatory diagram of the slit S in which the coin K is mounted, and FIG. 1B is a schematic diagram of the front view of the entire panel 1.
As an example, the panel 1 has a substantially transparent synthetic resin sheet on the surface, and a plate-like body (not shown) having a predetermined rigidity is partially bonded to the back surface of the synthetic resin sheet to provide rigidity. Is. With this configuration, the panel 1 can maintain a state in which the panel 1 is leaned against the wall or suspended without being bent or deformed by the weight of the coin in a state where all the coins are mounted.

A plurality of slits S serving as holding means for holding coins are provided on the surface of the synthetic resin sheet. The slit S has a structure having a straight line or an arc-shaped (not shown) cut-out line L and a circular hole C opened at both ends of the cut-out line L. The outer peripheral part of the two coins K is held (FIG. 1 (a)).
As an example, the panel 1 shown in FIG. 1B is configured so that a total of 875 coins K of 25 rows × 35 columns can be closely arranged and held for each coin. In addition, 875 holding portions each having a pair of the slits S are provided in a matrix.
In this Embodiment, it is provided so that the direction of the slit S comprised by two pairs may become the direction substantially orthogonal to the slit S of an adjacent coin. This is because when the circular hole C and the circular hole C are close to each other, the strength of the sheet is lowered, so that it is considered not to be close as much as possible.

Since the holding units are arranged in a matrix, each holding unit can specify the position by coordinates on the panel 1. For example, the upper left corner holding part is (column, stage) = (1, 1), the lower left corner holding part is (column, stage) = (1, 35), and the upper right corner holding part is (row, stage) = (25, 1), the holding part in the lower right corner can be expressed as (column, column) = (25, 35). The numerical values indicating the coordinates of the columns and steps described in the upper column and the left end of FIG. 1B are shown for explanation in this specification, but may be provided on the panel 1 so as to be visible. Is.
In the example shown in FIG. 1B, a 1-yen coin at coordinates (1,1), a 10-yen coin at coordinates (1,2), a 500-yen coin at coordinates (2,1), a coordinate (2,2) Shows an example in which a 1-yen coin or the like is held. As described above, the position of each holding unit on which a coin is mounted can be specified by coordinates.

  FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram for explaining information (designation information) for specifying coins to be mounted on the holding portion of the panel 1 specified for each coordinate. The designation information can be directly displayed on the panel 1 so as to function as a designation means, and a separate printed matter is provided as the designation means so that the designation information is posted on the printed matter. May be. When the designation information is provided directly on the panel 1, the designation information is posted on each holding unit, so that information for specifying coordinates is omitted. Further, when the printed matter provided as a separate body is used as the designation means, the designation information includes information for specifying coordinates.

The designation information includes types of coins (500 yen, 100 yen, 50 yen, 10 yen, 5 yen, 1 yen), and colors of 10 yen coins and 5 yen coins using at least a copper component (light and dark). (Including light and shade). 10-yen coins and 5-yen coins have a bright color with a metallic luster in a new state, but gradually become darker and darker as they are used repeatedly. In other words, coins that are generally circulated from bright colors to dark dark colors have multi-level colors.
One of the features of the present invention is that a painting or the like is expressed using the multi-level colors of such a coin. Of course, the final expression expressed by coins is not limited to paintings, but includes almost all display objects such as photographs, design drawings, symbols, and the like.

In addition, as described above, when a painting or the like is configured using the color of the coin, a single coin will form a part of the painting. The conditions set for at least the color must be met.
The designation means shown in FIG. 2 has information indicating the density of “C1” to “C18” that specifies the density of coins for each coordinate, and what color is “C1” to “C18”. A color chart 3 is also provided at the same time.
The color chart 3 represents multi-step colors from bright colors to dark colors as gradations, and displays the gradations of colors in a region with the gradations in a stepwise manner corresponding to numerical values of 1 to 18.
Since the color information specified by the color chart 3 is displayed corresponding to the holding unit, the user searches for the corresponding coin using the color chart 3 based on the designation information including the color information. However, a coin is attached to the panel 1.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of a panel on which coins are mounted based on the designation information. In this example, 37 pieces of 500 yen coins (total 18500 yen), 40 pieces of 100 yen coins (total 4000 yen), 18 pieces of 50 yen coins (total 900 yen), 580 pieces of 10 yen coins (total 5800 yen), 5 yen Using 150 coins (750 yen in total) and 50 1-yen coins (50 yen in total), the painting “Mona Lisa” is set to be completed with a total amount of 30000 yen. In this embodiment, in addition to silver glossy coins, five types of 10-yen coins and four types of 5-yen coins having different shades are used. In the case of the “Mona Lisa”, 10-yen coins and 5-yen coins having different shades are mainly used in a portion mainly representing hair and facial expression.

FIG. 4 shows an example of a background image that is visible before the creation of “Mona Lisa” shown in FIG. The background image 4 may be disposed on the back surface of the transparent synthetic resin sheet provided with the slit S described above, but the panel itself provided with the background image may be used as a mount with coins. When using as a direct mount, the coin can be mounted using a double-sided tape or the like.
In the background image 4, the coin mounting position is displayed as a circular area 5, and the circular area 5 is provided with picture elements constituting another painting. Therefore, when all the coins are attached, the picture that has appeared as the background image becomes invisible, and instead, the picture composed of the coins becomes visible.
A portion of the background image 4 other than the circular region 5 (region between the circular region) is provided with an auxiliary image 6 such as a fragment so that an image formed by coins can be clearly seen. ing. The auxiliary image has a color unity with the designated coin, and has a function of clearly showing a picture image such as “Mona Lisa” described above.

  FIG. 5 shows an example in which the “mona lisa” is configured by another arrangement method different from the coin arrangement described above. In the above example, coins are arranged in rows and columns. On the other hand, FIG. 5 is arranged such that other coins enter into the triangular gap between the coins arranged so that the density of the coins is increased.

  FIG. 6 shows a further different arrangement method of coins. In each example described above, the coins are arranged so as not to overlap, but can be arranged so as to regularly overlap. By using this arrangement, it is possible to reduce the area where no coins exist, and it is possible to more clearly represent an image represented only by coins.

Moreover, although the example demonstrated above demonstrated the case where the currency of Japan was mainly used, naturally, there is no problem even if it uses the currency of another country.
In addition, a dedicated chip (small piece) may be formed for coins having no monetary value or pattern construction, and the picture as described above may be constituted by the small piece.

  The present invention can be used as a saving means for composing a picture mainly with coins and for the purpose of accumulating a predetermined amount of money.
