❤️Why Tourists Love This

Japan is still a cash-heavy society, and you'll accumulate coins fast — ¥1, ¥5, ¥10, ¥50, ¥100, ¥500. A dedicated coin purse keeps them organized and easy to use at vending machines, shrines, and small shops that don't take cards.

📋How to Use in Japan

1. Get coins as change from purchases

2. Sort by denomination if you like (¥500 coins are gold, ¥100 are silver)

3. Use coins at vending machines, temple donations, coin lockers, and small shops

4. ¥500 coins are worth about $3.50 — don't lose them!

5. Spend remaining coins at convenience stores before departure
