[QUOTE="Poisonivy, post: 258832, member: 2417"][ATTACH=full]80719[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]80720[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]80721[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]80722[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]80723[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]80724[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]80725[/ATTACH] Hi all, I bought this a lot of years ago and was told it was a Victorian till. There is/was Slot in the lid but not sure why as the lid doesn't lock. The drawer base is Ply so it might have been replaced but Ply has been around a long time. It looks like something was once fitted in the drawers so maybe inserts for sliding out coins? It has nice Dove tailing on the corners but all in all it's a bit rough and I'm hoping to turn it into a sewing box, Haven't decided how yet though. So any thoughts on it age and original purpose? :)[/QUOTE]
