COIN-ENVELOPE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 426,331, dated April 22, 1890.
Application filed May 11, 1889. $erial No. 810,394. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, ARTHUR F. ROLFE,
JOSEPH l-I. ROLFE, ABIAL W. Roman, and
CHARLES M. ROLFE, citizens of the United States, residing at Penacook, in the county of Merrimac and State of New Hampshire, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Coin-Envelopes, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide convenient means for the transmission of small coin through the mail; and the invention consists in an envelope having divisions or pockets for holding and keeping separate various coins, and means for closing the entrance to said pockets ready for mailing, as fully set forth in the following specification and claim, and clearly illustrated in the ac companying drawings, forming an inseparable part thereof, of which Figure 1 shows one of our improved envelopes when only partially completed. Fig. 2 shows a side View as when completed and closed up, a few coins being represented by dotted lines therein. Fig. 3 is a detached View of the part forming the divisions of our improved envelope.
Similar reference-letters designate like parts.
It is our purpose to render our improved envelope useful either to be inclosed within an ordinary letter-envelope or to affix to it an address and postage-stamp for independent transmission; hence its outer dimensions are smaller than a medium-sized letter-envelope.
upon the front A, as represented at a a a The partitions forming the coin-pockets C are out from suitable thick paper, cloth, or other material, preferably in one piece, consisting of a strip D, running centrally from end to end of an envelope, having lateral branches E extending to its sides. These are gummed both sides and placed upon the part A, as seen in Fig. 1. The part A is then folded over upon the partitions D E, and the end extension a, after being gummed, is also folded over upon the part A, and the envelope is then readyfor use. The side flaps a a are gummed and allowed to dry without being stuck down; but they may be folded over as are the flaps of any ordinary envelope, and after inserting any coins desired these may be moistened and stuck down, when our improved envelope will be ready for mailing. The part A, if desired, may be scalloped on Y its sides, as indicated by dotted lines in Fig.- 2, for facilitating the entrance of a coin in either pocket O.
Having described our improvements, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is I A coin-envelope having its ends normally closed and provided with interposing divisions forming two rows of pockets having their orifice at either side of said envelope, and side flaps adapted for folding over to close the same.
In testimony whereof we affix oursign atu res 7 5 in presence of two witnesses.
