Hi. My purpose of making this post is to advise anyone who owns one of these faxcinating pieces of Birmingham history that keys for these boxes are now available on Ebay. I accidentally stumbled accross a post listed in 1920 from one owner of just such a box asking advice of how he/she could recover the predecimal coinage they saved in their old box and received poor advice such as take a drinder to it etc.
I have been making vintage money box keys for both collectors and individuals who get pleasure out of old money boxes and would love to get them open.
I can supply such keys (Including the BMB box) for less than a tenner plus postage.

Hi tergra32. Ive just looked on Ebay and cant find your listing for Birmingham Municipal Bank boxes, Can you put on a link
 
Further to my previous email a few minutes ago. I now understand that the Birmingham Municipal Bank key has not been currently listed on ebay.
I have renewed the entry at listing number 225786121886. For those interested in purchasing a key either enter this number into their search box at the top of their ebay page or if not a member of Ebay please contact me on the email address givin in my previous post.
