Napoleon III Coin Purse? Card Holder?

By Stu777, 18 December, 2009
Description

It seems to be either a coin purse, or what they called a card holder.

There's a spring-released catch, then another tiny compartment inside which also opens.

There's a picture of Napoleon III on the first side. On the other side, another picture: "L' Imp ce Des Francais".
