It took me quite a few tries to find a wallet I could work with, and one day in O'Hare Airport on my way to New York I was passing by Wilson Leather and I spotted it, and not bad, in the $20 - $25 range. A snapping small tri-fold woman's wallet with the right configuration of slots inside, a bill holder, and a zippered coin holder. But I put my coins in a separate coin purse and put various cards lumped together in the zipper coin holder (library, Sam's Club, memberships, etc.). The cards that go in the card slots inside are the four I used most often or need to find without any fuss (debit, insurance, credit). It has a pocket so my driver's license is visible, and in front of that a little zipper where I keep a couple of dollar coins and a spare house and truck key. I rarely carry a check book any more, so that's why I was able to downsize so efficiently.
I do have to be sure my coin purse isn't too full or it sinks to the bottom and is difficult to find.
