Been sleeping on the payout shortage issue. Question seems to be: if the coins are too thick and causing an issue, what else is adjustable? So I took a normal quarter and a hammer and pounded down the edges to make it thinner still. Not too much to pancake the coin. Just the edges. Makes it feel thin to the touch because the edges are gone. But a whole stack of these babies might do the trick in providing a more amenable stack height and hopefully a normal payout.
Not owning a Jennings yet, I'm thinking there seems to be plenty of tolerance for the width of the coin in the mech,but less so for the thickness of the coin as it lays flat in the coin tube. So it's something to fiddle with to gain or lose some height.
Not perfect, but I thought I'd ask. So this is my Easter gift or my Easter egg". Thanks for reading. Marty in Florida
