          Appeal No. 1998-1117                                                        
          Application No. 08/220,756                                                  

          to show that this combination would have suggested to those                 
          skilled in the art to have more than one cash handling                      
          mechanism serving a greater number of customer operation                    
          stations.  Granzow does not fill this gap.  Granzow teaches a               
          system in normal operation having at least one cash handling                
          mechanism for each customers’ operation station.  Therefore,                
          we will not sustain the Examiner’s rejection of claim 2 under               
          35 U.S.C. § 103.                                                            
               In view of the foregoing, the decision of the Examiner                 
          rejecting claim 1 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is affirmed; however,               
          the decision of the Examiner rejecting claim 2 under 35 U.S.C.              
          § 103 is reversed.                                                          

















                                         10
