      Best bet is to take it to a locksmith, they can get it open and make you a new key.

      Thanks Dave my wife has suggested the locksmith also. I guess I will have to be more trusting and find a good one. Not knowing what is inside is hard my dad was a collector of gold and silver coins and he would be loving enough to put stuff like that inside and not leaving a key would be his way of letting me figure out how to get the bank open. He is probably looking down smiling. thanks much for your help.
