You couldn't have found a better model 81, with the small coin door and large letters.  The best part of this hobby is the "find". Thanks for sharing yours with us.

YES. At first I thought it was missing, or it had been painted over in red. I touched the front of the area and it is smooth, as if it has a cap on it. But when you look at it through the glass or back of the door, there is a DARK GREEEEN CLEAN
MEDALLION sitting in there. Unexposed to the elements.

with all this talk of machines being found I went down to the local paper and placed a one week want ad. It wasnt cheap but hopefully something will turn up.
