Abstract: A coin wrapper cutting tool comprising a principal body portion on which a cutting blade for cutting crimped end portions of wrappers of packaged rolls of coins and an element for shielding the blade when cutting is not required are assembled; the principal body portion including at least one shoulder supporting the blade and shielding element, the shoulder also having a side beyond which the blade projects. The principal body portion also including a platform portion extending from a back side and against which platform portion the end of a packaged roll of coins may be pressed. The platform portion further having an abutment surface extending generally parallel to the shoulder and blade, but closer to the back side of the principal body portion than the blade by an amount facilitating cutting the crimped end portions of wrappers of packaged rolls of coins without interference from coins in such packages.

Abstract: A self-limiting crimping hook device for coin wrapping machines which as an integral part of the crimping hook assembly, provides a fixed and minimal clearance between the foot of the crimping hook and the end coin of the coin stack, through which the tab of a quick opening pull strip can glide without damage during the rolling of the edge of the wrapping material in the crimping operation.
