I've carried a small Buxton coin purse to games and functions that I didn't want to carry a purse for years and years.  It is so handy to slip in a pocket with drivers licenses, credit card, insurance card and some cash to run and go.  My sister saw mine and wanted one but I couldn't find one like mine since it was so old.  This one is really too large for a regular pocket but it has an small identity carrier inside which is perfect for doing what I mentioned above.  You just can't carry coins very easily in the id carrier.  My sister seemed to love it and the purpose it will be used for.
