Remember to use double brackets to link cards so people can see them.

Cabal Coffers

Cabal Coffers doesn't add swamps anywhere, that's the symbol for black mana. All basic lands, such as Swamp, have an ability that's not printed on the cards but is a known fact of the card. A Swamp has the ability, "Tap: Add 1 black mana to your mana pool". What Cabal Coffers does is it adds one black mana for each swamp you control. When mana is added to your mana pool, it remains there until you move to the next phase of a turn. So if you add it during your main phase, all mana left in your pool will empty out when you move to combat. Similarly, if you add it during combat, it'll empty out when you move to your second main phase.

Slightly incorrect, mana empties at the end of each step and phase.

If you float mana in your main phase 1, it empties when you move to the beginning of combat step.

If you float mana in the declare attackers step, it empties when you move to the declare blockers step.

It doesn't stay with you through all steps. Other than that, the above answer is pretty much spot on. Cabal Coffers adds to your mana pool for each Swamp you control, which includes dual lands like Overgrown Tomb and Bayou.
