This was passed down to me and I'm not sure how old it is. My first guess was late 20's to early 30's where the Depression hit and the savings aspect was trying to be pushed across the country. On the front it says "Regular Savings Accumulates Great Wealth". It measures about 3" tall, just under 2 inches wide and 3 3/4" length. It has a special way of inserting coins. There are gears inside so the money cannot be taken out when you put it in. The only way is to use the 1" keys to open up the bottom. Any help would be great thanks.
