Unlike other Mills Novelty 5c Wolf's head I've seen online, this one is unpainted, polished and has swastika's professionally carved into the wood and metal. I pulled out the guts, cleaned out some jammed coins, and the thing started working. The grease looks very old and dirty, and the pull takes some force, but it spun and collected coins in the window. It's located in California's central valley, Modesto area. Looking for offers.

That is not a Nazi swastika, the arms are going in the opposite direction. At the time this machine was made, the symbol on your machine was called a good luck symbol. It was used quite frequently on various items as Good Luck.
