The architecture is amazing! The banquet honoring local numismatists for their contributions was a very nice event.

The attached historical photo of the vault gives you an idea; coin impressions can be seen on the inside steel of the vault made by the weight of the bags of coins. There are a number of interesting exhibits in the building, one of the 1915 PPIE -- photos of some of the so called dollars in the exhibit.
