Standard metal typer

I found some gizmo jammed on the bottom.  Pushed with screwdriver and the spring/dog ear released.  It was part of the coin eject arm.  The slide was half way.  Couldn't tell with the columns in the way but when the piece reset, the slide mech popped out.  It was jammed when I got it from two coins but the arm would not release until that jammed piece popped.  I tried a few and failed and the fourth one seemed to work.  Pretty cool. 

I thought every coin in the column would be used before the columns would rotate, but the columns rotate after each release of the coin.

That might be the best response to getting a problem fixed I have seen!  Glad you got it working, seems like a cool machine.

Outstanding work guy's!! Recall those. Mostly jamed, the Penny mashers seemed a bit better.

Haha took me a minute to realize what you did with the coin.  Glad to hear it's fixed.

Not trying to hijack the thread....any idea what kind/size/type of solenoid a Standard Metal Typer takes?

Wish I could help.  I sold this one last year.
