A wallet comprising a concave top hingably attached to a concave bottom. The hinge pin has a central bore adapted to receive a cylindrical article. The top and bottom each include a half latch mechanism. There is also a spring attached to the hinge pin and bearing on either the top or the bottom and a pin, passing radially through the hinge pin and one of the hinge knuckles, for securing the hinge pin in place in the wallet assembly. The wallet remains closed when the top and bottom are latched to each other and will open by itself when the latch is unlatched. The wallet preferably includes a badge attached to the top and internal springs to retain items against the top and bottom.
