Coin purse?

[Drizzle]

Can anyone refer me to the statute that goes toward carrying a coin purse with a handle and a zipper, with, say, quarters inside?

Obviously is there's other kinds of items you could carry that would work the same way, but I'm reluctant to mention that sort of thing directly. Thanks.

It’s 2023, you can carry whatever type of purse you like, ma’am.

It might fall under https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/2022/cite/609.66 Dangerous Weapons (isn't that an oxymoron?)

(3) manufactures or sells for any unlawful purpose any weapon known as a slungshot or sand club; or

(4) manufactures, transfers, or possesses metal knuckles or a switch blade knife opening automatically; or

(5) possesses any other dangerous article or substance for the purpose of being used unlawfully as a weapon against another;

ETA: the provisions about "unlawfully" and "unlawful purpose" make me suspect that the statute is mainly intended to be applied to muggers and other assailants using improvised blackjacks. YMMV, depending on the police and prosecutors.

This post helps me understand, and become more comfortable with this thread.

I guess I should restate; any law in MN anyone is aware of about carrying saps, blackjacks, or the like?

There is generally nothing at a state level. However, several cities have ordinances prohibiting possession and/or carry. Check carefully.
