Featured My Vette Coin Cash Box

[XFIRE82]

Figured I'd use this for my Vette Coins should I ever earn any ( ha ha ) . 2 days ago I picked up at a auction this 1913 National Cash Register. Guys, it weighs a ton , unreal . It even has the paper work from the factory that says it built it for the owner of a store in Antelope , Sask dated 1913. Highest key is for 10 dollars. Spent all day 2day tuning it up . Took it apart hoping to find some old money that slipped over the cash drawer etc but never found a cent.

NCR is an interesting company. Long and varied history.

That really is a nice find. Beautiful machine and all the documentation as well.

Wow cool piece,reminds me of the one my Grandfather used to have in his Barber Shop when I was a Kid..........................

Hotrodron, was his a big register like the one above or the small One Dollar ones that they called candy store or barber shop registers ? I have the small one too but don't have a pic handy and it's not the fancy engraved nickel but is brown imitation wood.
