Bucknard's Everfull Purse enters the battlefield, immediately passes to an opponent, and then every upkeep you claw it back and generate treasure — it's a repeatable mana engine that also doubles as a political tool. Wyll, Blade of Frontiers // Sword Coast Sailor decks run it at nearly 60% inclusion for a reason: the card earns its slot on raw mana production alone, before you factor in any donate synergies.
Best Commanders
Commanders with the highest synergy
Wyll, Blade of Frontiers // Sword Coast Sailor
Wyll, Blade of Frontiers // Sword Coast Sailor triggers off dice rolls, and Bucknard's Everfull Purse produces a treasure on each upkeep via its steal-it-back mechanic — every reclaim is a resource event that feeds directly into Wyll's roll-matters engine.
Zedruu the Greathearted
Zedruu the Greathearted wants permanents in opponents' control so it can draw cards and gain life, and Bucknard's Everfull Purse is purpose-built for that loop — give it away, draw a card off Zedruu each upkeep, then take it back and repeat.
Iroh, Tea Master
Iroh, Tea Master rewards gifting things to opponents, and Bucknard's Everfull Purse is a self-recycling gift — you hand it over, trigger Iroh's generosity payoffs, then reclaim it next upkeep ready to do it again.
Zidane, Tantalus Thief
Zidane, Tantalus Thief cares about stealing and controlling opponents' permanents, so Bucknard's Everfull Purse fits both sides of its game plan — it starts in an opponent's control and then gets repeatedly pilfered back, each cycle feeding Zidane's theft synergies.
Vazi, Keen Negotiator
Vazi, Keen Negotiator runs a multiplayer deal economy where handing resources to opponents generates payoffs, and Bucknard's Everfull Purse is a perfect instrument for that — it crosses the table, earns goodwill, then returns to your side with a treasure in tow.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | not legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Bucknard's Everfull Purse is a Commander card through and through — its pass-and-steal loop requires a multiplayer table to reach full value, and the political texture of gifting it is meaningless in a 1v1. In Legacy and Vintage it's technically legal but completely unplayed; the effect is far too slow for those formats. Oathbreaker is the one non-Commander environment where it could theoretically see play, since the format shares the multiplayer structure that makes the card tick. Everywhere else, you're not missing anything by ignoring it.

Budget Alternatives
Cheaper options that do most of the same work
If you want the donate-and-reclaim loop without the price tag, Humble Defector does the job for pennies — you draw two cards, pass it, and opponents pass it around while you keep extracting value. Bucknard's Everfull Purse does something Humble Defector can't: it produces mana every cycle rather than cards, so the trade-off is whether your deck needs the treasure generation or the draw more.
Price Context
Current price
$6.36 mid tier
At $6.36, Bucknard's Everfull Purse sits squarely in mid-tier pricing — expensive enough to feel like a considered purchase, cheap enough that any deck built around its loop can justify it. Demand is concentrated almost entirely in Zedruu the Greathearted and a handful of donate-themed commanders, so the price should stay stable as long as those archetypes stay popular.
