A metal lever that moves laterally across the front of the machine points to multiples of 5 from NS to 95. On the right is an auxiliary lever for indicating amounts from 0 cents to 4 cents. On the left is another auxiliary lever for indicating 0 to 9 dollars.When the p...ointer-lever is depressed, the dollar, multiple of 5 cents, and 0 cent to 4 cent amounts are indicated on separate indicators at the back of the machine. A window in the front of the machine is above the scale for the pointer. I believe this model had an option to be covered with a shutter which can be opened only with a lock and key, keeping a secure record of transactions. I do not have the lock or key & unsure if it was made with a cover or not, I've seen both models with & without...The wooden cash drawer has seven compartments for coins and 4 for paper bills. Two spring at the back of the drawer keeps it in place. Currently I can't get the key's to pop up but at one they did pop up, something may have jarred loose during my last move 10 years ago...Great Patina, Has Original Logo Plates on Both Sides, One is easier to see, the one on the front side has a lot of patina and hard to read but it's present, original labels in draw as well, mostly complete, excellent resto project or fantastic as it is....All pics taken outdoors, no flash used, pics are part of the conditionCheck Out My Other Listings & StoreLocal Pickup Preferred...Register is very, very heavy & the cost of shipping based on location will vary, I'd prefer local pickup, could meet upwards of 50 miles, please message me with any questions...
