Early Egyptians are known for crafting some of the first coin purses we know today. Mainly purposing to hold the loot one acquired, coin purses began expanding their demographic as commerce became more elaborate and complicated. By the 17th century, women were taught how to needlepoint their coin bags in order to find a proper husband. Fast forward into the 1920's, many women were just now tasting freedom from the demands of womanhood. Flappers hotsell appeared with their short, bobbed hair and their above the knee hemmed dresses-- dresses that were made to move. Their coin bags reflected their desire to move with the loose, soft, meshing that could easily keep up with the flapping of their dresses. These coin bags were worn on their wrist or belt and generally used for evening-ware or church. These coin purses made a huge debut between 1925 and 1932 up until products became cheaply made after The Great Depression.
