A characterful large vintage black piggy bank in the shape of a Vietnamese pot bellied pig with a matt black surface. He has many surface marks and patination with some chips around his ears, feet and edges. On his behind there is a registered design number that looks like it reads 866796, which if correct, is for the year 1952. The saved cash is removed from a red felt covered hole in the base. (It is glued down at present). His worn look adds to his charm!
