ID help - not quite a coin...

pbyco

My grandfather had this among his coin collection, but I know nothing about it and was hoping someone here did. It's a bar approx 2"x3.25"x0.25 thick made of brass(?) and weighs about 4 oz.It commemerates the 25th anniversary of the Fulton trust company of New York. Any details would be appreciated. It's a very cool piece and hopefully these were a trend back then, would like to get more!

As a collector of paperweights, I can tell you that it is just that...a paperweight.

These were usually handed out to preferred customers.

A very nice piece, I might add. But then, I'm partial to items with a nautical theme.

Value? I would say around $20.00 - $30.00.

Cheers,

Bob

Edit to add...As usual, actual value is what someone will pay for it.

Thanks. I tried googling the bank, but there is nothing.
