Synopsis:
Two burglars discover a mysterious treasure in the pocket of a woman’s fuchsia coat. Anybody who wears the coat is given access to an infinite source of wealth. The only drawback is that they are not allowed to show the coat to anybody else. This is why the more cunning of the two crooks forces his assistant to wear the coat in disguise, so that he can spend the riches.
