Those are some of the coolest piggy banks I’ve seen.. How did you get the Post Office doors? Did you make the brass coin slot plates yourself?

Hey Mike,

Where did you get such great historical items? I always look for neat stuff to embelish with but this is ingenious! Kudos my friend!

Awesome job on those banks look very imprestive.

Here is a link to a guy that sells the fronts and coin slots. I have not ordered from him but am thinking real serious about it.

I have one of these. My mother was a Postmaster and received it as a gift. I filled it with silver dollars and old half dollar coins.

These are really great. I made banks like this at work once. We bought all the boxes from an old post office. I do not remember how many there were but I do remember they came in all different sizes and there was a bunch of them. Very nicely done. Thanks for posting.

God Bless
