This cast iron "still bank" - a type of coin bank that does not have a mechanism to return coins - was made by the A.C. Williams Company between 1899 and 1934. Designed to resemble a domed bank building, the piece is painted white with gold accents. The bank's design is simple and decorative, with a detailed facade and an intricate roof. This "Domed Bank" still bank is a charming example of American folk art and a reminder of the importance of saving money.
