It was a coin counter machine I bought for my fathers little shop he has. A Semacon S-35 for a hundred bucks. Considering they are around $650/1000 new i figured a hundred bucks was a good price. It came from a closed down jewelry store. I met with the guy and we made the transaction. I had no idea how to operate this machine, so of course i had to play with it some. Then it stopped working, so I packed it away because I was working as well. I got home tonight from work and open it up, took out the coin bag and power cord stored in it and find two mercury dimes and a wheat cent on the spinning wheel.
And I figured it out stopped working because i turned the counter on and it stopped after it met the number
