| | | The picture below shows three larger views of this Old Numbered Metal Novelty Liberty Bell Public National Bank Rochester New Hampshire Advertising Still Coin Savings Bank. Shown is the front and back, and the bottom. The old bank has a patent date, but we do not know the actual year that it was made. It is numbered “G2558” and was from The Bankers S. & C. System Company of Cleveland, Ohio. This Liberty Bell bank is copper or bronze colored, but it is made of magnetic steel metal. It has not been polished. There is a copper plate with the bank name, city, and state that it came from. As with the real Liberty Bell, there is a wooden section at the top. There is a coin / cash slot on the bottom as well as a key hole. This bank does not come with any keys, because the issuing bank would have the key, to open it when you were ready to bring it in the bank, to make a deposit into your account. It is marked on the side, and bottom as follows: PROCLAIM LIBERTY THROUGHOUT THE LAND UNTO ALL THE INHABITANTS THEREOF. LEV. XXV10 PUBLIC NATIONAL BANK ROCHESTER, N.H. G2558 PAT. FEB. 18 – 1919, MANF. BY THE BANKERS S. & C. SYSTEM CO. CLEVELAND, O. U.S.A. The steel still (not mechanical) bank measures about 3-3/4'' x 4'' x 3-3/4''. It appears to be in excellent or better condition as pictured. |
