          Appeal No. 95-4028                                                          
          Application 08/097,904                                                      


          Final (paper number 16), claims 2, 4 though 6, 13, 15, 17 and 18            
          were canceled, and claims 1, 8, 10, 14 and 16 were amended.                 
          Accordingly, claims 1, 8 through 10, 14 and 16 remain before us             
          on appeal.                                                                  
               The disclosed invention relates to a non-contact IC card               
          that has a circuit board with an electronic circuit mounted on a            
          first surface, and an antenna coil disposed on a second surface.            
          The electronic circuit is covered by a resin package.  A                    
          plurality of testing wire conductors are located on the side of             
          the circuit board that holds the electronic circuit, and a first            
          end of each of the testing wire conductors is connected to the              
          electronic circuit.  The second ends of the testing wire                    
          conductors are exposed at the second surface of the circuit board           
          for testing the electronic circuit.  The second ends of the                 
          testing wire conductors are covered by an electrical insulator.             
               Claim 1 is illustrative of the claimed invention, and it               
          reads as follows:                                                           
               1. A non-contact IC card comprising:                                   
               a circuit board having opposed first and second surfaces and           
          an antenna coil disposed on the second surface of said circuit              
          board;                                                                      
               an electronic circuit mounted on the first surface of said             
          circuit board and having a plurality of functions;                          


                                          2
