Compatibility:
This mod should be compatible with 99. 98% of mods on the Nexus and beyond. However, if one finds an incompatibility somewhere, let me know ASAP and I will try to fix it... ASAP.
Any mod that edits the values of Coin Purses and their loot tables will NOT be compatible with this mod, though I am more than willing to make a patch for any mod that does conflict with mine.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,906 endorsements and over 153k downloads.
- Directly improves loot rewards, making coin purses worth looting.
- Lightweight and focused – does exactly what it says without bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- Only affects coin purses, so the impact is limited if you don't loot them often.
- Potential conflicts with other loot overhaul mods that also modify coin purse contents.
For Skyrim players who find coin purses underwhelming and want a quick loot boost. If you're a completionist who loots everything, this mod adds a nice incentive. Skip if you're looking for a comprehensive loot overhaul – this only touches coin purses.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple mod, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager.
- If you use other loot overhaul mods, load this one after them to ensure its changes take effect.
- Check the mod's compatibility with your Skyrim version (Special Edition vs. Legendary) – it's from 2016, so it may need tweaks for SE.
