ITEM DESCRIPTION
 
This is an antique coin purse made from faux tortoiseshell or tortoiseshell coloured celluloid.
The lid has been inlaid with a nice silver shield shaped cartouche inside a mother of pearl floral design border.
The inside is lined with blue silk.

Concertina / bellows type inner which is slightly damaged see the photos. . Push button works fine but its a little stained as its base metal. 

No maker's marks etc. from what I can see.

Normal signs of age and use wear including some surface scuffs and minor impact marks etc.
The inside is damaged down the sides/edges so it wouldn't really hold any coins now. The inner lining is faded and discoloured as shown in the photos.
Please see close-up photographs provided for more details and visual confirmation of condition for yourself.

It measures approx. 70mm x 52mm x 20mm.

Postage policies:

International overseas buyers please read this first - I use eBay International Shipping - (EIS) to send items to you. All items I send to their UK shipping hub and they are processed and forwarded onto you. 
 EIS sorts any paperwork, taxes and tariffs  etc. which enables items to get through customs much faster than other delivery companies. 

EIS then decide on the cost of shipping, sales tax, and possible other charges etc. - All this information can found on the listing when bidding or buying. 
I have no control over the prices that EIS set to you.

The shipping time is usually very quick but as you can appreciate there may be delays for any number of reasons which are out of both mine and your control. Thank you.

14 day REFUND policy with antique and second hand goods. NOT 30 DAYS.

To see ALL my other 8000+ items for sale, please click on VISIT SHOP or see other items. Strangely, both options seem to only give a limited view of what I have to offer, so to see everything I have available, click on Shop by Category which will give you a much better view.

Scale is usually an English 1 penny coin which is 20mm in diameter which is just short of 7/8ths of an inch in diameter, or a universal sized Coke can (330ml).


If you see A/F = a/f in the title or description it means "as found" condition which may have scuffs, scratches and damage. In relation to all my listings it does not mean " about fine ". I have used A/F  for " as found " for 50 years.


To be fair to all bidders I do NOT end auctions early, so please do not ask for a buy it now on an auction item.
