Abstract
Abstract A coin display card, or page, is formed of a transparent sheet of plastic material, embossed to define a plurality of coin receiving recesses which open towards one side of the sheet. A second sheet is operatively connected to that side of the embossed sheet and has apertures therein located adjacent the recesses in order to permit insertion of a coin through the apertures into the recesses where they are held by the second sheet. The embossments in the first sheet permit one side of the coin to be viewed while the peripheral edge of the embossment permits the entire peripheral edge of the coin to be viewed.
