    Sorry, I don't know what that means! Continuing the "gumball machine" thought, is there anyone out there that has sourced coins from these machines? ... it would be like coin roll hunting, but with a higher probability of finding old coinage or tokens. After all, 'kids' are still 'borrowing' relatives coins, just like 50+ years ago!

    I talk to one that was cleaning out and filling some machines at a local store. He said that once he recovered about 8 five dollars gold coins from one. That was about 15 years ago. Once when i was in grammar school, i was looking into an old street car that was a dinner and all around it was over grown. I found an old news paper stand, and it still have a coin drop clocked on it. It was really rusted and beat up. So, I went home and got a tool so I could open it. It had cents of Lincoln, Indians. 5c Jefferson, buffalo. 10c some Barbers, many Mercurys, 25c all early Washingtons, no halfs. :)
