	The coins are sealed and glued inside gatefold cardboard sleeves, usually decorated to resemble conspicuous markings of the character (i.e. [[Tracks (G1)\|Tracks]]'s flames, above). The coins themselves bear the likeness of the Transformer [[character]] on the front, while the back typically features some other sculpted iconography associated with the character and/or a large engraving of their release serial number. Because the coins are glued inside, it is difficult to remove the coins without severely damaging the display sleeves.
