Mansbakje
A 'mansbakje' is used by organgrinders to collect money in the streets. They shake their mansbakje on the rhythm of the music to persuade people in the streets to put change in it.
Street organs are a Dutch fenomenon. However the police uniforms in this picture are German. There is some Dutch change in the picture from before and after the 'Euro'. There is also some Norwegian and some Russian change. So in every way a very international picture.
