| Description |
Eric P. Newman's Custom Coin Display Trays. When Eric was a young man, he and his father created custom coin display trays for many items in his collection. The 10.5 x 7 inch trays consist of fiber-board with spaces cut out for various coins and room for type-written labels. Each board is sandwiched between two pieces of glass, and the display piece is housed in an open-faced wooden tray. Two large wooden cases hold a dozen trays each with the balance outside of cases. This lot includes 41 custom coin display trays with two additional open-faced trays. Some are labeled, and others are unlabeled. They could undoubtedly be reused for other coins or tokens of similar sizes. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
