Coin pouches (New Pics added)

There wasn't a lot going on today so I decided to make a couple of simple coin pouches. Just playing around with some ideas.






Playing around with another design. No lanyard holes this one is strictly for pocket carry.

cool

is there a way to make a sheath that will showcase both sides?
i also want to encase it in a plastic coin holder like these..

however i don't know the exact deminsions so i can order the right one

thanks for the info..

now the search begins for a coin dealer

you could have it set in lucite. it would be displayable from both sides and preserved. just hard to carry around in your pocket...

thanks Wigg,
but im not really worried about preserving it so much anymore. since i bought an EDC model..




well maybe i'll still look into a display case of some sort

I think Bors has the right idea. A little leather pouch that you can wear around your neck so you don't lose it and it doesn't get beat to death by your car keys or EDC knife clip.

I had the same thought so I oredered one and and it came today however, it's made from brittle plastic. It's fine for display but would not hold up well.

If you interested I ordered the one for the Military Challenge Coin (2" or 50mm) #Y65.

thanks for the info Bors.
i think im going to try to find a local coin dealer.
shipping on the $1.50 holder was $7.00...

if i strike out i will order that one though.

gracias

Container Store has a variety of clear hard plastic display boxes specifically for collectables like baseball cards and coins. Don't know if they have anything in the appropriate size but it may be worth looking.

Yep the shipping <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Not a whole lot of choice where I live.

Great company though fast shipping <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Good idea, Bors!

My thought exactly. There not fancy just functional. Had it with me tonight when we saw Harry Potter rides in the pocket nice. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

looks sweet!

Nice pouch Bors. I like it!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Bors, great work on the pouches! I like them very much!

Added pics of a different design. This one is for pocket carry only. No lanyard holes.

new design looks cool

Great ideas, Bors! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> At least one of us got something useful done today!

Does anyone know when the challenge coins that were purchased will ship?
