Well
First , You need to check the serial number (not the Pat. number but the serial stamp at left!) on the Top casting and be sure that is the same on the wood (near the cashbox).
The first original Rol A ToR have this case , no other way.
But on the last model , like the bird of Paradise Rol A toR , you have this model. But it s not realy a toR !!! it s a standard rol a top With just the toR casting and sold from Watling like this !! Not a Frankenstein !!! That was the last toR model. And seen this only on the bird version !!!
And remember , the first Tor model have a special mechanism (White denomination badge, different escalator and some other parts) !! Different of the ToP !
TOR (9 coins in the escalator for the 1/10/5ç and 8 for the 25ç) :
ToP (only 8 coin in the escalator for all coins):
If you need more photos , let me know.
