Some people collect them. Check ebay for values.When I see them at garage sales they are around $3-$5.

You demolished a bank, what did you do with the vault?

How old was the bank building and did anyone check the corner stone for a box of items?

there's never anything in the vaults (20 years and 20+ banks later I have never found a single penny).

old vault doors usually have asbestos issues and I dont bother with them. newer doors usually are kept by the bank.

shonit and shaft, you guys have one each, i'll pay the shipping but you have to send me something (anything, just for fun) back in return

The older ones, I've seen them for around five dollars.
The new ones (such as the mint bags for halves) don't seem to worth more than a dollar.

young,

my main focus is a pre 1969 one of everything world type set, and just about anything canadian.

i really dont care what you send, I also have a section in my binders for CCF trades. anything I get from memebers here (even if I have one already) gets put in there along with the memebers ID name. its just for fun.
