Mimi’s Coin Purse

W16 7 20 PENTALIC MIMI COIN PURSE 03I have these odd things of my grandmothers.
Her dime bank, and this, her coin purse.
She was a simple woman and the simple items
I have from her are precious memories.

    My grandmother had a very similar coin purse. Nicely done, Kate.

    Lovely! I also have my great grandmother’s coun purse. My Mom used to tell me how she went to town every Saturday with her coins to shop. Sweet memories.
