I found this at a local thrift shop and can't identify. This still bank? has like a fort or castle 5 3/4" tall. It is also marked but I can't make out the name. Also, I'm not sure of the composition, silverplate? silver? pewter? Can anyone help? Thanks Much!

Charity Box. Judaica.
Check out Tzedakah box.
In the front is the Hebrew word 'tzedakah' which means 'charity', I think.
Beneath is the city of Jerusalem.
.825 means silver to me!
