Medieval Leather Coin Pouch, Drawstring Belt Pouch
A Practical Accessory for Any Character
This medieval pouch is a perfect example of strength in simplicity. It essentially consists of one circular piece of quality leather, gathered by a strong leather cord. This cord is intentionally left long, allowing you not only to pull the pouch tight but also to wrap it around and securely tie it to a belt, as shown in one of the photos. This minimises the risk of loss and makes your coin pouch a natural part of your attire.
From Antiquity to the Renaissance
Before the invention of pockets, which only became a common part of clothing in the modern era, pouches and bags were an absolute necessity. People carried coins, personal amulets, herbs, or a fire-starting kit in them. They were common in ancient Rome, among the Vikings, and throughout the Middle Ages. This is precisely why this design is so universal and suitable for a wide range of costumes and characters at re-enactment, LARP, or cosplay events.
A Point of Interest: Beware the "Cutpurse"
In medieval towns, there were no "pickpockets," but "cutpurses." These thieves specialised in slicing the cord of a pouch from an unsuspecting victim's belt with a sharp knife. This just goes to show how common and valuable the pouch was!
