Description from the seller

A magnificent cast-iron piggy bank with a beautiful patina. Depicting a rider on a horse.

Text on the piggy bank: always did spice a mule.

This collectible is in complete working condition and is a beautiful addition to any collection.

Complete with the original metal stopper cap.

How it works: insert the coin into the rider’s mouth, press the button and the horse tilts forward, causing the coin to fall into the piggy bank.
