The movement of physical cash and/or other monetary items along the cash supply chain requires security. Some security includes the continuous recordation of video or other images to provide a visual history of the activities that occurred at a particular location along the cash supply chain. By automatically identifying an item at various points along the cash supply chain and associating it with a particular timestamp, the relevant portions of the video surveillance may be quickly and efficiently identified when a suspicious event occurs.
