This is the coolest coin purse I've ever owned. It's well made from thick leather and has a sturdy zippered compartment that holds nearly $10. It's long and flexible and has a strap for extra security (this replacement can be heavy). It's just a word of caution about the weight, length, and strength: if you accidentally swing this thing around and hit someone while it's stuffed full of spare change, it's not going to be any good. I think it might blow someone's mind. or worse. Of course you will never wave it, why do you need it, this is a purse.
