Abstract
A coin holder with a plurality of coin accommodation openings is disclosed. Each coin opening comprises a clamp spring pair formed by two opposing sidewalls acting as clamp springs. Each clamp spring pair comprises at least two clamp regions with differently spaced clamp surfaces each for the clamping accommodation of coins having different thickness. Coins of different thicknesses are held in their respective clamp region, whereby thicker coins are held in the upper portion of the coin accommodation opening, while thinner coins are inserted more deeply and thus held in the lower portion of the coin accommodation opening. The coin holder can be used for various currencies, without the need for country-specific variations.
