WTB National Rejectors Dime Mech

[collecture]

Brian,
I got your PM, but will answer you in the forum for the benefit of all.

The slug rejector is often mistakenly called a coin mech or coin rejector, which is a misnomer - you want it to accept coins not reject them).
A coin mech is the mechanism that makes the machine work (i.e. crank handled mech on a soda machine) and the coin is the catalyst for making it work.
A Slug Rejector is a device that has two purposes:
1. Test coins for validity and reject slugs, foreign or bent coins. Valid coins will be accepted. Slugs or invalid coins will be rejected.
2. Direct coins from the coin entry chute to the coin block (if accepted) or to the coin return cup (if rejected)

National Rejectors, Inc. made a lot of different rejectors - penny only, nickel/penny, nickel/dime, nickel only, dime only, quarter only, quarter/nickel, quarter/dime and all of these are the same size (small door) rejector. They just have a few different parts - for example: the nickel/dime, dime only and quarter/dime all have the same backside (where the dime is validated), but the front side is assembled differently (see pics --- L to R - N/D, D, Q/D).
So realistically a quarter/dime rejector can be used in a soda machine. You just set the rejector to reject all quarters (easily done) and only accept dimes.
Hope this helps!
I have an extra Quarter/Dime rejector if interested - LMK

       I have one I could part with. P.M if you are interested.

Glen - that is a dime mech for a Vendo 83 or Vendo 23.
The dime exits on the front side and would not work for his machine.

      Thanks Tom, I didn't know where it came from.

Ok,
Here are the small rejectors I mentioned earlier (Pictures 1-2)... I confirmed by looking at my Popperette that the 4 smaller ones are indeed from the popperette, so if anyone is needing a rejector i have some .. however i don't have the holder and relays..

the other two are slightly larger and those I thought might be from another different popper? (photo 3-4)  Thoughts?

  Hey John, By the pictures you posted those ones would not work in my case... They are to small and I think it rejects the coins to the right and not the left... Thanks for your help though... maybe someone will see them on here and could use them..lol.. Once again thanks for all your help     Brian....

collecture,  Thanks for the wealth of information... It helps me and others with the correct term for these.. I also was unaware of how many different types and combinations there are of these..Wow...ha ha I did PM you on the one extra one you have... Thanks !  Brian...

I knew the small ones are for Poperette, but figured the bit larger one was for another popcorn machine.. but your saying the one in the minit pop,upopit is a full size rejector like in a soda machine?  hmmm then wonder what these are for?

[PopcornShop]

  Hey John, From what I gather I would say yes...lol..  Im still learning about these slug rejectors myself... But I would say its like some that are found in soda machines... But I am still learning about these..  Im still taken by how many different combinations there are ...Yikes!! ha ha

Tom,

You should write a reference book.  Your wealth of knowledge on coin mechs is unbelievable.
