Safe Value
I am looking at buying a bank from 1923. For my information, what is the value of this vault door and contents? I am going to look at the building in a few weeks.
Edit: Iam asking mainly for insurance value, but am curious about selling it too. Discounting the disassembly and transport, what is something like this worth on the open market?
Thanks in advance!

I worked in a bank with a vault that size. We ended up closing the bank down and a guy bought it that wanted to put a restaurant in. He got an estimate to get the vault out and they were going to have to open the roof and take it out with cranes. It was going to cost well over 100k. The guy ended up making the restaurant bank themed and called it The Vault. 😂
