Yep, a very good deal. My first 81 cost me 275.00 in the 90's. none have ever come around even close to that price.
It must be beginners luck for both of us.

Thanks for all the comments guys.  Can anyone speculate on the age of the bottle caps I found in the machine?  I have never found crowns with cork in them before.  The machine only had $1.00 in dimes in it and none of them were newer than 1970.  Only the Pepsi and 7up crowns had cork lining.

They look like 60's - 70's. were any of the dimes silver? It's always cool finding old coins in these machines.

The oldest dime was 1965, not sure when they were silver but it was probably before that.     Hard to believe but this machine may not have been opened since I was born.  She had lost the key and could not remember the last time they used it.  "When she was a kid" she said.
