Hi,
Your machine was not made by Samson Novelty Company, it was made by R & W (Ruffler & Walker) in 1959. Bill Ruffler was a close friend of mine, is son Roy is still connected to the business through his position of Chairman of Ruffler Bank PLC. The Ruffler family was promnent members of the British Coin MAchine Industry from the 1930's till the mid 1970's when they merged with Associated Leisure PLC. they made your machine in several different version (See attached pictures

)

Anything you need to know about the Ruffer family, just ask.
