1951 National Cash Register

Heres a fun project ive been working on. This is a 1951 National Cash Register that was abandoned in my great aunt's old shop building. The drawer was broken, the keys were stuck, and this was covered in dust. Ive repaired the drawer, ive loosened the keys, other than that it seems to be in good condition.

This looks so cool--

The bit of rust on the front will come off easily with #0000 steel wool, and the finish looks to be in great shape! Love the industrial 50s look.
 
They really dont make 'em like that anymore, eh?

Certainly not something you see every day.
 
I'm curious as to what slots it has?

I'm thinking 5 each for coins and bills
coins: 1c, 5c, 10c, 25c, 50c (my understanding is the half was commonly used at the time, and dollar coins, like now, didn't actually circulate much)
bills: $1, $2, $5, $10, $20 (and maybe also doubling as a slot for cheques)
