My wife has several older moneyboxes issued by banks. I will try and get some photos to post here later.

I'm pretty sure i have 3/4 of each stash away somewhere,i'll have a look for them.

Here's some of them but i'm sure there is more,,just can't locate them in among the other 800/1000 tins LOL.

These live here (and some more, but I can't find where the others have been hidden).

Herbie was picked up at the tip! Definitely seen better days.
The Commonwealth one is used. I don't think I have ever seen one of the brown and yellow ones.

Jeff if people click your image it opens big in a new tab.

Bigger pics like I post are uploaded elsewhere, some people use photobucket.

Gee, I have a photobucket account. It is so long since I used it I wouldn't remember my user name or password.
I might try Auctiva sometime -have a paid account and use for eBay listings but have also this used for photos to post or send elsewhere.

That is an excellent price. Much better than paying $80 plus $10 postage from the Mint Shop.
