Hi all,

Looking for a nickle escalator for a 1963 era Mills compact. Coin entrance is not a "Hole" but a vertical drop in (not a High Top) . My current escalator works but is well used and worn. Will not display full line of nickles but does work ok .... Please let me know of any available for purchase ??


Thanks

I have a Mills Compact that is similar to yours. My escalator looks like yours as well. I posted nearly the same question to a reputable slot repair person. He wrote the following: "It is right as this would have been a casino modification to lessen escalator jams reducing 5 coins to 2 coins in the escalator during play!" The modification he is referring to is the diagonal metal piece that may be at a 45 degree angle.
