Wow! 4 pages of replies and no one mentioned how to get the money out. (Am I that old??) If the bank has a slot
on top, you can insert a plain knife, jiggle the bank up and down, and the coins should slide out along the knife. Used
to do that all the time with my piggy bank. Good luck!

There's a jeweler her in town that deals in old coins as well (I've dealt with him before), so if there's anything in here worth selling, I go through him, then put that amount back in the bank. Otherwise, I'll put it all back as 'bait' for more-gotta grow my stash cash somehow!

If your jeweler doesn't help you then take it to a locksmith they should be able to sell you a key to open it...they are usually just those little ones like a diary had, but some are a little more sophisticated...you might even have one somewhere in your "junk" drawer.
Love it!!
Love it!!
