In England, during the Anglo-Saxon period, the main forms of taxation were land taxes, although custom duties and fees to mint coins were also imposed. The most important tax of the late Anglo-Saxon period was the geld, a land tax first regularly collected in 1012 to pay for mercenaries. In the past taxes were also collected by tax farmers and shire sheriffs. They would have needed a pouch to carry all that extra coinage they gathered. This type of pouch would have been ideal due to the fact that it can hold twice as many coins and flips over ones belt. There are two steel rings so that you can slide one down on each side to lock up your valuables. Handmade and contrasted of suede this exquisite bag is a must have to finish off any period costume whether man or women.
