The key still works perfect to lock and unlock the box. Then the lid slides off and their are slots for the steel printing plates. I have 2 steel plates that fit in the box. The copper plate must be something different because it is much bigger with its border (doesn't fit in box), and the back doesn't have a hole for a bolt to be screwed in to the printing press. It was kept in the cardboard envelope with the old ink writing on it. In the old Haxby obsolete book all notes from this bank (Rockland Maine) are SENC (Surviving Examples Not Confirmed). Any information on value, who to contact, how to sell it would be appreciated. Is there anything like this that has ever sold before for a reference? Thank you! I got it from an elderly man set up at a coin show that used to collect everything Maine because he lived their.
