Container having tamper-indicating means

摘要

A currency cassette for an automated teller machine is provided with a counter for maintaining a count of the number of times that a currency access door of said cassette has been opened, and is further provided with an interrupt mechanism for prohibiting said count from exceeding a predetermined amount and returning to a zero count. Reset mechanism is provided for disabling the interrupt mechanism to permit the counter to be reset to zero when the cassette is returned from the automated teller machine to a central location for reloading with currency when the currency contained in the currency cassette has been depleted by dispensing through the automated teller machine.
