This 1932 "Coin Registering Bank" by Kingsbury Mfg. Co. is a charming example of a vintage coin bank. The blue enamel body features a circular dial with a counting mechanism for tracking deposited coins. Its design is reminiscent of a clock, with a large dial featuring markings from 0 to 100 cents and a hand that rotates to indicate the total amount saved. This piece is now a part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection, reflecting the enduring appeal of this playful and functional object.
