Slot machine restoration finds

[millslot]

I thought it would be interesting to find out what you guys may have found in your slots over the years! Any really old coins? or just plain weird stuff you may have found in your machine while restoring it?

Ill start by saying when i started taking apart my hightop i really didnt expect to find any old coins or anything (a previous owner had already gone through the cashbox/jackpot/coin tube). However, when i removed the coin tray i was pleasantly surprised to find a couple old mercury head dimes!

So, anyone got any good stories about their finds??

found some french coins in a Jubilee Mk1 (not very interesting) and a couple of cheat clips on reels, 1 on a Jennings and 1 on an Aristocrat (much more interesting)

Nothing too exciting, but I bought a Watling Treasury about 6 months ago which had some buffalo nickels and some war-time nickels in it. The newest coins in it were from the early sixties.

I did find some silver dimes and old nickles in a wurlitzer jukebox I restored

The oldest coin I ever found was an 1899 quarter in a Mills Horse Head Bonus that I bought up in North Dakota.
