As has been commented previously, you have either a Mills Black Cherry with extra cherries added. Or more likely a Mills Diamond Front with cherries replacing the diamonds. Could be a Mills imitation such as Buckley. Check your inside front casting to make sure marked MLB. Value is always a challenge - here in Midwest, about a $700 machine. More on west coast. IMHO - Flip.

That machine was originally Mills, revamped by Baker Novelty. They called their revamps "Black Beauty" as seen on the award card and it should say it on the reel jackpots. They would replace the cabinet and the castings with their own, and use Mills mechanisms. I am sure it was a Baker Diamond Front that someone replaced the diamonds with cherries.
