Interesting Deposit Developer Coin Bank Finds
Hello everyone,
I haven’t been actively purchasing or engaging in collecting coins over the past year or so. I’ve been focusing on other things but I never lost interest in the hobby. I recently found some stuff that definitely rekindled my interest.
Last week I helped my cousin move some of her furniture. As a thank you she baked me some sweets and said she had something else for me. She gave me this vintage Deposit Developer Coin bank that was full. It didn’t not have the key. I was able to see a clad coin threw the slot so I dismissed it at first. I assumed the content were just normal pocket change and maybe a wheat penny.
Curiosity got the best of me. I couldn’t picked the lock so I ended up busting it open. I was shocked when I saw the contents. There was plenty of modern stuff and foreign coins. However, there were plenty of “gems”. I was particularly suprised to find the Seated Liberty Half dollar, the commemoratives and the One Dollar Liberty Head even though it’s damaged. I thought finding this particular assortment was unusual. I took some pictures(below). This find made my month so I figured I’d share it with y’all. Thanks for reading and looking!!

That's pretty dang cool! Even with the lower/cleaned conditions of some of them, it is a cool thing to find. Happy for you!
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

Looks like it was actually a coin collection (type set) that someone had kept safe in the coin bank.

Yes, you sure did. Nice coins but it's a damn shame what you did to that coin bank. 😓 🤕

Wow, awesome coin bank find. I have always dreamed of finding a bank like that. You even got a little gold. Sad about the bank, looks like a simple 2 prong lock. I have a couple parts drawers full of keys for banks, all you had to do was ask

I saw a similar one, but a little different in a recent sale on ebay for a bit over $100

Very cool finds there. Man, I know I would have found a way to pick the lock on that bank. That is a very cool looking bank.
