Hey Guys,

I'm talking to a fellow that a slot for sale. This looks like a weird set up with NO visible escalator. I have never seen a Pace configured that way.

Were these experimental models?

The back door is missing and also the back of the slug rejector. I see a similar unit listed on Ebay but with a visible escalator.

The slot in your pix, is the Pace "Comet" - 'Big Head'. They made them in 1c, 5c, 10c, 25c models.
The head is similar to the one used on the Pace "Rocket". I do not remember seeing another, that
is void of the rotary escalator. I hate to tag it with the terminology 'prototype', when I am not sure,
as I am not a Pace expert. Sadly, we lost that person several years ago. Jim Waters knew everything
that there was to know about Pace Slots, and then-some. If you happen to pick this machine up, I
would definitely like to see more detailed pix of the coin head internals.
