A bank vault, complete with 8 million coins worth GBP 270,000, goes on sale in Basel, Switzerland, Dec 03, 2013. It was built in 1912 and features 1,619 deposit boxes with all keys available. The boxes and lockers were handmade from steel and brass. The vault is being sold by the Generation Basic Income Initiative, who campaign for a basic income for each Swiss citizen on a monthly basis.
