I Have Been Waiting For This Day

I picked up these Oak beauties today. They are my first coin ops of 2014 and the first I have bought since October.

Seller couldn't find the keys so I bought them anyways figuring I could just drill the locks.  Before I broke out the drill, I decided to pull out the keys from my other machines and try them which usually fails epically; until today!

I was able to open the penny/nickel Oak with a key from my quarter Northwestern Mouthy Marvin and the yellow penny Oak with a key from my nickel Toy n Joy machine.  In my opinion, a very cool way to end a dry spell and kickoff the new year.

Good looking machines and always a nice surprise to find keys that works. I know most  of the time I have to break out the drill

^^ Great score!

I have three Oak machines and a couple of Fords.  Period restorations are simple and inexpensive.  They're lot's of fun.

I have a box of master keys for the machines I like to muck around with. Can't beat it..

Nice pair of machines. I have a penny Oak and a penny Ford, the grand kids love them.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. These make my 3rd and 4th oak of this design.

Great find! .. now all that's left to do is to fill them up!

Good point ray.

Although, since the seller didn't have the key, the ones that were still in there got real funky. Need to Purell them before I eat anything that comes out of them
