A currency and card holder is disclosed that employs two retention mechanisms, thereby creating both a primary and secondary means of retaining articles. The primary mechanism may be actuated with one finger to grip and release the contents of the device. The secondary mechanism enables a greater total capacity without substantially increasing the size of the device. The device is formed by a base upon which is attached a pivoting arm structure. The pivoting arm structure contains a sliding mechanism that acts as a primary means of retention against an article, or articles, with the base as a supporting member. The pivoting arm structure acts as a secondary means of retention. The secondary mechanism is engaged automatically when the primary mechanism reaches its capacity, and can also be actuated independently. The device may be employed as described, or in conjunction with an accessory container. |
