[QUOTE="Alessa Gillespie, post: 166214, member: 2794"]I have no idea how much this is worth or how rare it really is, but i assume it to be quite rare as all google searches have led me up to a diffrent, and more boreing design of this object. I am not sure how old it is but for sure it is made in japan and says "our own imports" this is an ashtray piggy bank combo most likely from the good ole days where things cost a few cents it was where you threw your spare change for your next pack of smokes :p. I bought this at a thrift shop for 25[SIZE=4][B]¢ [/B]and the seller said "it's probably a collectable" I would like to know how much it is worth it is in mint condition with only the cover hole missing and it appears to have a manufacturing error which makes coins not properly slide though the ball, or maby this was intentional but it is defiantly not from wear and tear that abnormality. how old is it? ball park of what it is worth? how rare is it?
