Coin wrapper

Claim 1

A wrapped roll of coins, comprising: (a) a roll of coins having a length and a circumference; and (b) a wrapper comprising: (i) a flexible substrate having: a substrate length and a substrate width, the substrate width being greater than the circumference of the roll, and the substrate length being at least as great as the length of the roll; along the length of the substrate an inside edge which contacts the length of the roll and, at the opposite end of the substrate, an outside edge; along the width of the substrate a pair of side edges; an inner surface which faces radially toward the roll; and an outer surface which faces radially away from the roll; and (ii) on the inner surface of the flexible substrate proximate the side edges, a coin-supporting amount of an effective clean-releasing pressure-sensitive adhesive, wherein the adhesive securely retains the coins within the wrapper and the coins can be selectively cleanly released from the wrapper without tearing the wrapper, whereby the wrapper can be reused.

Claim 9

A method for selectively holding a roll of coins having a circumference, a length, two ends and two opposite circular sides comprising: (a) arranging coins to form the roll of coins; (b) selecting a flexible substrate having: a substrate length and a substrate width, the substrate width being greater than the circumference of the roll, and the substrate length being at least as great as the length of the roll; along the length of the substrate an inside edge which is suitable for contacting the length of the roll and, at the opposite end of the substrate, an outside edge; along the width of the substrate a pair of side edges; an inner surface suitable for contacting the roll of coins; and an outer surface opposite the inner surface, wherein on the inner surface proximate the side edges is a coin-supporting amount of an effective clean-releasing pressure-sensitive adhesive; (c) contacting the length of the roll with the inside edge of the flexible substrate such that the ends of the coin roll are in contact with the adhesive; (d) wrapping the roll in the flexible substrate, wherein the inner surface of the flexible substrate is in operable contact with the coins around the circumference of the roll of coins and wherein the ends of coin roll are securely retained by the adhesive; and (e) removing the flexible substrate to unwrap the roll, wherein the roll of coins is cleanly released and wherein the flexible substrate can be reused.

Claim 10

A method for selectively holding a roll of coins having a circumference, a length, two ends and two opposite circular sides comprising: (a) arranging coins to form the roll of coins; (b) selecting a flexible substrate having: a substrate length and a substrate width, the substrate width being greater than the circumference of the roll, and the substrate length being at least as great as the length of the roll; along the length of the substrate an inside edge which is suitable for contacting the length of the roll and, at the opposite end of the substrate, an outside edge; along the width of the substrate a pair of side edges; an inner surface suitable for contacting the roll of coins; and an outer surface opposite the inner surface, wherein on the inner surface proximate the side edges is a coin-supporting amount of an effective clean-releasing pressure-sensitive adhesive; (c) contacting the length of the roll with the inside edge of the flexible substrate such that the ends of the coin roll are in contact with the adhesive; (d) wrapping the roll in the flexible substrate, wherein the inner surface of the flexible substrate is in operable contact with the coins around the circumference of the roll of coins and wherein the ends of coin roll are securely retained by the adhesive; and (e) removing the flexible substrate to unwrap the roll, wherein the roll of coins is cleanly released and wherein the flexible substrate can be reused.
