Note: Possessive proper pronouns are used before a noun as an attribute. Possessive absolute pronouns are mainly used as a predicative. They are never followed by a noun. Possessive absolute pronouns are typically used in phrases like a friend of mine, that house of theirs, that brother of yours, etc.

Which coats are theirs?

A friend of mine is coming to see me.
