UNITED STATES PATENT CEEIcE.
WILLIAM B. COULTER, OF WATERBURY, CONNECTICUT.
HOLDER FOR SENDING COINS BY MAIL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 500,800, dated July 4, 1893.
Application filed March 15, 1893- Serial No. 466,031. (No model.) i
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM B. COULTER, of \Vaterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Holders for Sending Coins by Mail; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in-- Figure 1, a broken plan view showing one form which a coin-holder constructed in accordance with my invention may assume, the article being applied to the heading of a letter as in use; Fig. 2, a view in transverse section on the line ab of Fig. 1.
My invention relates to an improved coinholder designed to be used for sending coins by mail in letters, the object being to produce for the purpose specified, a cheap, convenient, ornamental and inexpensive article, adapted to be applied to a letter or other inclosure, so as to secure the coin or coins confined by it, in a fixed position within the envelope, whereby the same is prevented from being cut out and the money lost.
With these ends in View, my invention consists in a coin-holder having certain detailsof construction as will be hereinafter described and pointed out in the claims.
My improved coin-holder, as herein shown, comprises a central circular depression or pocket A, and radial arms or fingers B, the inner faces of which are provided with a coating of adhesive material C, as seen in Fig. 2 of the drawings, the whole article having a star-like form. I prefer to make the article of paper of good weight, which is struck up in suitable dies. If preferred, however, I may employ cloth or any other equivalent flexible material. By indenting the edge, as by cutting the same to form radial fingers, as shown, I prevent the material from puck- .ering when it is being struck up, and also give the article a pleasing and ornamental appearance, but I would have it understood that the indentation or cutting of the edge may'take a variety of forms, and is not confined to the fingers shown.
The pocket A, will be adapted in size and depth to receive a coin.
It is designed that the articles shall be supplied to the trade in sizes suitable to receive the coins in most general use, such as five and ten-cent pieces, and quarters. By preference the article is furnished with a central sight-opening D, formed in the center of its pocket to expose the coin, but this is not essential.
In view of the suggestions herein made, I would have it understood thatI do not limit myself to the exact construction herein shown and described, but hold myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall within the spirit and scope of my invention.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A coin-holder for sending coins by mail in letters, having a circular depression or pocket to receive the coin, and an indented or fingered edge, the inner face of which is provided with a coating of adhesive material, substantially as described.
2. A coin-holder for sending coins by mail in letters, having a circular depression or pocket to contain the coin, and containing a sight-opening to expose-the same, and an indented or fingered edge, the inner face of which is furnished with a coating of adhesive material, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
WILLIAM B. COULTER.

EDWARD F. COLE, WM. J. SoIILEcEL.
