There is disclosed a very compact flat case for carrying prophylactics, such as condoms and the like. The overall dimensions of the case are approximately the same as a large coin. The case has flat top and bottom members which are hinged together with concentric cylindrical walls which support a resilient seal such as an O-ring. One or both of the mating walls are inclined to insure that sealing pressure is applied to the O-ring. The case has a closure which has a pair of detent balls, one each of each of the top and bottom members. The detent balls seat in mating recesses in the opposite member.
