The early metal Banks are the ones to look for (especially those with a combination lock) Cast Iron and Tinplate banks are also popular with collectors
but later banks are known in Glass,Plastic and Ceramic
There are also Disney Banks with Gumball machines,moveable arm models,
alarm clock models and other imported models.
Banks were of course originally designed to encourage Children to save regularly
and very early ones had to be broken to get to the savings.
A novel idea was the automatic savings banks which were usually made of cast iron and the simple action of placing a coin the the mouth or hand of the character triggered a mechanism which moved an arm or other part of the character and deposited the coin inside the savings bank.
