    Description

    Antique "1933 A CENTURY OF PROGRESS - CHICAGO"  WORLD'S FAIR BANK
    THIS UNIQUE AND EXTREMELY IMPORTANT OF CHICAGO'S WORLD'S FAIR HISTORY -
    NOT TO MENTION WHAT MAY BE INSIDE!!!!
    UNKNOWN (ANTIQUE....EXPENSIVE?) COINS STILL REMAIN INSIDE.
    (NO KEY) .
    I estimate approximately 4-9 coins still occupy this historical bank.   I attempted to empty this without damaging the bank itself.  I decided to leave them inside.  Could be real gems!
    It appears to be covered in a hard red-leather container.
