Functioning as an incremental coin counter, the piggy bank holds American and Canadian quarters in contained stacks that add up to $5 each when completely full. The vessel is made of clear acrylic so that you can observe the value of your wealth within. Both ends of the tube are secured by aluminum caps with the bottom remaining in place and the top able to be pried open to use the Battery Bank by Rene Lee.
