The machine and the coin mech are both small. The machine is 48"tall.

in the picture to the right on the door is the coin slot. it matches up with the coin mech so I would need something small enought to match the coin slot.

Krecal, did your LaCross have a coin mech like this one?  I don't understand how a Coinco would mount.

The only thing that bothers me is that I don't see the wire harness that connects the coinmech to the machines electrical "jones" socket ( the mech looks like an early Coin Acceptors model to me, they are now called Coinco) & it looks like a single price/exact change only  "shorty" is the machine labled for 10-cents I'm assuming?
a full length coinco could be adapted, by removing the "coin reject" channel on the left/bottom  & the "accepted coins" chute extension to the right. the mounting holes should line up , or at least would be a big deal (to me anyway) to be placed in to right spots to support the larger S75-9800 series changer/coinmech ( I've done it before)

to clean it simple unclip it from the main body of the mech. by lifting the clips in the upper corners & tilt it down towards you then once it's at about a 45 degree angle pull the "Slug-rejector" out of the main body, then you can boil it in a big pot of water ( no kidding!) with a tiny touch of dishsoap to clean out all the gunk.... see the attached photo with the circles & arrows.

What era does a 10 cent machine come from?

Thanks for the info. I have yet to check out the wiring. I unclipped only 2 wires from underneath the mech. See pic.

When did they stop making the coin mech I have? Maybe that could give me an idea how old the machine is.

It is a 10 cent machine. That is one of the reasons I bought it.

I plan on taking more pics and maybe someone can tell me where to get wiring for this machine. How to place the shelves back in properly. (they were just stacked inside). Color codes to paint it.

The coin mech is a National rejector 8000-27, St Louis MO.

Nope. anyway on this mech. all the magnets are used for is to reject Canadian coins & steel-slugs. it's safe to boil the all-metal slug-rejectors,in fact it's recomended by Coinco's manual with these types.

DO NOT emerse the lower half in water!!! only the "Slug-Rejector"

it's a "square-corner" machine, so it's from the early '60's
(Yes, soda-pop was still a dime!  ':p' ) it's just got a "single price" coinmech, ( it won't make change, or accept a quarter, just nickles & dimes) here's how to remount the shelfs below.
