  • Publication number: 20140090210
    Abstract: A clip is provided for a compressive restraining engagement of two sides with material such as money placed therebetween. The clip employs a serpentine configuration of a wire-like member to form a pair of diagonal crossing members communicating between two parallel sidewalls formed by distal ends of the member. A continuous parallel positioning of the contact surfaces of both sidewalls once engaged with material therebetween, enhances the biased engagement of the material. Planar sidewall sections may be engaged to the member sidewalls to enhance the contact with material therebetween and to enhance the ornamental aspects of the device.
