I use old film canisters for a coin purse. (It can hold US quarters. Nothing larger.)
I notice my canisters cracking with age. I needed to get another one. Suddenly the realization set in. I don't have any more and they are no longer made. [Oh the horror! Whatever shall I do?]
I don't like the typical coin purse (for guys). They are thin and do not stack coins well. Lady's coin purse won't fit in a pocket. And the fancy one's are getting costly.
To my delight, film canisters are still sold on eBay. For some reason the Kodak type are more expensive.
I've ordered a bunch. Enough for me in the coming decades, and a few to show millennials who seem to find it a curiosity.
