Grey Iron Casting Co. ca. 1897 Large Print “Deposit” Cast Iron Still Penny Bank *SOLD*

Antique ca. 1897 Grey Iron Casting Co. Large Print “Deposit” Cast Iron Still Penny Bank

This is a beautiful architectural ca. 1897 “Deposit” cast iron still bank manufactured by Grey Iron Casting Company of Mount Joy, Pennsylvania.

This Victorian style bank is all that is good with early American penny banks. It is well made, iconic in style, and does its job for storing pennies. It is a small bank, but for being over a 100 years old the paint on this is pristine. A real survivor!

There is not much dust on the top, so the colors are extra nice. Though it may not be as big or glitzy as others, we think the colors are just fabulous. The detail in the shingles is gorgeous. On the front it says. “DEPOSIT.”

Our example of this cast iron “Deposit” still bank is in excellent all original condition with no breaks restorations, repairs, or touch ups. The paint is in excellent overall condition with the usual dust, patina, scratches, surface rust, scuffs and chips that are seen with age and use. This piece is approximately 2 ½” L x 1 ¾” W x 4 1/4” H. This would be a great addition to any architectural or still bank collection. We encourage you to examine the photographs to further determine condition and quality.
