Plastic holder for Penny

Chuckey · May 12, 2014, 08:05:43 PM

Hi All,

Welcome to my 2014~!
I am producing a few cards to hold a (1913) penny to commemorate some new friends I met last year on a research trip. I'm hoping to find a pop-in plastic holder to suit a penny, and I'm in need of a dozen of these. Has anyone some suggestions?

Cheers!

Thank you Ford Prefect.

There is a product that RAM have used to hold coins in a card - Its a 2 part flexible clear plastic and will snap into a hole in a piece of cardboard. See: http://tinyurl.com/l7m4dn8

pretty sure that you can't buy those (well, not from the RAM anyways)

the RAM have a excusive contract with the manufacture for the coin holders aka clamshells, they are not allowed to sell them to the public.

this product will do the job >>

AJ here, WTF is that second link, can't believe they used an error, what a joke :cray:

I have a number of the "PNC capsules" and the 50¢ size takes a penny. Little bit of free play but looks good. PM me for a pic. Chuckey -will only cost you postage to get some.
Cheers,
