Looks to me like a 1933 Jennings Century. On the Century model the double jackpot with reserve was mounted to the lower casting, not the three reel mechanism. Fortune strips are also an indicator that is was in a mint vendor machine.

Thanks for your feedback. I thought it might be a century but was unsure.

I picked up a dime Chinese Front Sun Chief awhile back, the mech was definitely from an earlier machine, like the Century. This one however has the Prosperity Award on the fortune reel strips. Although someone added the jackpot to complete the overall look there is no linkage present. Have any info on the Prosperity Token operation?
