of which the following is a Specification.

This invention re lates to improvements in Coil holders or packages of a permanent character, which is particularly adapted for use by banks, Counting houses and Other business concerns which handle large sums of money.

The principal object of the invention is to provide a cheap, durable and safe holder for Coin in which the coin contained therein may be easily inserted or removed and will be almost ent-irely visible.

Another object is to provide a coin holder adapted to hold coins of different denominations.

itli the above and other objects in view, the present nvention consists in the combination and arrangements of parts hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and particularly pointed out in the appended claim, it being' understood that. changes may be made in the form, proportion, size and minor details without departing from the spirit or saerificing any of the advantages of the invention.

In the drawingsz---Figure 1 is a plan view of the inventon in open position. Fig. 2 is an end view Fig. 3 is detail view. Fig. lis an enlarged detail view.

Referrng now more particularly to the drawings in'which like reference characters designate Corresponding 'parts throughout the several views, 5 and 6 represent two semicircular members, composed of parallel longitudinal frame bars 7 and 8 and connecting selnicircular end bars 9 and 10, preferably of fleXible spring material. The member 5 has its ends open, and the ends of member 6 are closed by disks 11, which may be suitably connected to the semicir- Cular end bars 10 asby means of spaced spring' clamps 12 on the bars 10. The sides V of the members 5 and 6 are inclosed by fiexible reticulated side walls 12' and 13 preferably composed of loosely Woven spring wire fabric and which are stretched between and suitably secured to their respective frame bars. Hinges 17 connect the semcircular members' 5 and 6 together. A suitable spring pressed pivoted dog 14, carried by the member 5 is adapted to resilie-ntly engage a Catch 15 correspondingly located on the member 6 to retain the holder in closed position. If desired a plate 16 may be provided upon. which the amount of money contained in the holder may be inscribed.

Having' thus described my invent-ion, what I ,claim is:

A Coin holder comprising two semicircular members having connecting side and end bars, end disks secured to the end bars of one of said semicircular members, side Walls stretched between the side and end bars of each of said members, said side Walls comprising a wire fabric.

In testimony wher-eof I afliX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
