It took me $80 in quarters to win 13 silver dollars. It's pretty much random whether you would get a Morgan or a Peace, and the casino began adding SAE's to two of the machines to replace the dwindling supply of the old cartwheels.</p><p> </p><p>On the top of each machine is a glass case filled with silver dollars, and I remember that one of the machines had an 1893 in the case.
