Not sure if this is normal but it has a hole in the case in the front, one in the back door and 4 slightly larger holes on the bottom not including the normal ones for feet. I’ll add two photos with the locations circled in red.

there are no holes in mine that i can find, with the exception that mine has the valley sales jackpot mounted to the base, and i aint takin' it off to see where the holes needed to be......but those holes are definitely a clue to SOMEThin'.

I have Vest pocket with a valley sales jackpot. The highest jackpot on the flap is 20 coins. My flap has the + symbol too under the three bars and the 20.

A few years late I know.

But there are some out there with a 70 reward card.
20 from the machine and 50 coins paid by the bar/person owning machine.

I only know of 3 people with this reward card.

I never paid attention to it before this post but my Mills Vest Pocket does have an award card with a 70 jackpot.

The back door hole is stock and holds a small square nut and bolt which keep the machine forward in place. I have no idea what the front hole is for in yours. That's not original.
The bottom holes are stock and I'll have to look in to what they were for. I always meant to research that but just forgot!

In addition to what "shortrackskater" stated. The small hole in the front had a small metal pin pressed into it. This was a guide pin and there was a matching hole in the mechanism to help guide/lock it into place.

I DO remember that pin in front now. Thanks for correcting me on that Ed. I'll try to take photos of both these areas and post later today.
