[QUOTE="AntiqueBytes, post: 9102540, member: 13195"]I know "rare" is a term for very rare conditions for items, and scarce is used when items are more available. I have this reproduction of a cast iron bank, and looking for it online, I found it under "J.E. Stevens Co. Cast Iron No. 335 “Indian Camp Bank” Mechanical Bank". I've also seen it listed as "INDIAN SQUAW BANK. I couldn't find online listings of those terms but did find them under "Chief Big Moon" lol It's interesting how the bank received two additional names. I did find five current online for $40 to $75. So far none under sold. Sold mechanical bank reproductions can sell for very little. I know nothing about this field of cast iron banks. Are some cast iron bank reproductions actually fairly "scarce"? The original of this sold for $24,000. [ATTACH=full]430346[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]430347[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
