The present invention is a rack for storing and displaying a plurality of items. The rack includes a housing having a length, a top surface, a front end and a back end, a stop formed adjacent the front end and an elongated slot formed on the top surface and extending from the stop to the back end. The length of the housing is selected to hold a plurality of items aligned in a row on the top surface between the stop and the back end. An arm projects from the slot and is movable along the slot between the front end to the back end, the arm being biased towards the front end sufficiently to bias the row of items towards the stop. The rack further includes a plurality of first electrical contacts aligned in a row adjacent and parallel to the slot, the first electrical contacts being separated from each other by a space equal to a thickness of each of the items. A second electrical contact is formed on the arm, the second electrical contact configured to electrically couple to each of the first electrical contacts in sequence when the arm is moved between the stop and the back end. The rack further includes an electronic digital display positioned adjacent the front end, the first electrical contacts and the second electrical contact being coupled to the numerical display by a circuit, said circuit configured to display a numeral on the display equal to the number of items in the row between the arm and the stop, said circuit selecting the numeral by identifying the first electrical contact coupled to the second electrical contact.
