    Here is an item that I recently found that I thought some of you may enjoy and I would appreciate any feedback that can be provided on it as well. It seems to be something from the mid 1800's or older. Possibly used at a Church. Each slot has a name. Eliza. Ellen. Albert. To put money in for each respective individuals missionary work it seems.

    It is about 10 inches across and 6 inches tall. There is an image on the front of a guy that appears to be holding something, heading into the building that the bank depicts, and looks like Abraham Lincoln.

    There is also another posting I put up of a Empire padlock that is on the back of this that may help in dating the item.

    Thank you for looking as well my friends. Always wishing all of you nothing but the best! : )
