Use

On doubloon oceans, the bank contains a doubloon exchange, similar to what is found in the doubloon exchange section of the ye info button.

Storage

A bank has no hold. But the owner may store PoE in it as if it was a treasure chest.

Historical Notes

Pirates used to have separate bank accounts on each island. Money could be transferred between islands for a fee. Money held at uncolonized islands was "buried" and could not be transferred. The addition of the Global Purse eliminated the use of bank accounts.
