I have a couple questions on this Ben Hur. I hope someone can help.
1. Am I looking at the serial number in these two pictures or should I be looking somewhere else?

2. There is nothing for the coin head cover to lock to on the top of the wood case. Can someone tell me or send a picture of what I am missing?

I plan on keeping this one all original. I'm just cleaning all the smoke and funk off of it. I am also removing the 6 bugs. The machine would never stop on yellow or white.
Any help would be appreciated.Thanks.

Mike:
Yes, the 183 is the serial of this machine. Most of the early numbered machines had the Caille badge on the front as well. Nice addition.
