Appearance

It is a pink pouch with a darker reddish-pink dot pattern, along with a gray, metal kisslock that also seals it shut.

Strategies

Coin Purse is essentially a cheaper and worse version of Fancy Purse. Coin Purse generally is not helpful since 30 Tapes is not much, so there is no reason to use it at all. Its extremely affordable price may be somewhat helpful to starters, but 30 Tapes probably will not impact you much, if at all. Coin Purse is also outclassed by other starter Trinkets — Pink Bow and Speedy Shoes being much better choices.

Do not use this Trinket, as it generally does not contribute much in the long run, even on Sprout, Ginger, or Teagan — 30 Tapes is three Machines; there are many Trinkets that will give more Tapes even by Floor 2.

Its only mid-game use is for Mastery — it can help Sprout, Teagan, Ginger, and Blot advance their Use Ability! requirements and can aid with Buy Items From Dandy/Use Items quests. Usually it fares best in short runs solely conducted for Mastery, as it is outclassed in every way past Floor 3 by Dandy Plush, Vee's Remote, or Fancy Purse.

Trivia

Coin Purse has a few notable facts from its history.

  • Coin Purse ties with Research Map in being the cheapest Trinket to obtain via Ichor, with both also being the easiest to complete prerequisite tasks for, with only 1 requirement.
  • Coin Purse used to cost 250 Ichor before patch 0.3.0.
  • Coin Purse is the first Trinket to give the user Tapes, with the second being Fancy Purse.
