Description
This collector's coin holder consists of a cardboard top with a transparent laminated backing. The top has a tan woodgrain background with black printing for the title, the individual penny labels from 1909 to 1938, the explanatory text near the bottom, and the decorative rectangular border surrounding all of the above.
