Hello
Sorry , but not an anti cheat !!!
Do you know the Mills FOK Eagle? (And some other mills like an extraordinary) .
Look this photo. the same hole at the same place .
It s the coin return.When the mint distributor is empty, and when the machine is COMPLET, a link stop all coin and send it to this hole.
The same system for the Bonus when it has the side distributor with all the link for this. Please Check and post the serial number please , check also on the wood side for see if you have some hole for a distributor.
A lot of Horse have this hole , but never seen it with the complet system, but always with this small part for hide the hole .

The trip mechanism for the bonus is on the opposite side of this plate. Next to the letter "S"

Hello Stephane, I think one thing of reassurance is the machine is not damaged it is definitely manufactured. The serial # is 340284 and I didn't find any type of holes for a distributor. I found another photo with the inside of the machine, and it is exactly what I have. I have spoken with a few people that have been in this hobby for 50yrs+ and they have said they've never seen that. Well, it's mine and maybe someday I'll figure it out. Thanks for your help.

Hi

Here is an other .
And I m sure that I can found more .
I know that is an original modification, not a home made .

And tell me if you have the same "special" design on your casting ? Or maybe do you can post a photo of your complet machine ?

And here is what you must have have if the slot was made with a distributor. (removed)
Note the small plate of aluminium.
