Coin Bank, Airplane Model, Lindbergh, King Collection
A large slot in the middle of the wing acts as the deposit point for this coin bank. Below the slot is a small keyhole located on the top of the fuselage. Below the keyhole is a large dollar sign on top of a feather pattern. "Spirit of Saving" is printed on both sides of the dollar sign. To access the bank the entire wing disconnects from the body when the key is turned. The propeller on the front of the bank is free spinning as are the wheels of the plane.
