Reproduction large Door Mechs

I am starting to work on this coin mech. I have a few originals to work from and I am going to take a stab at it. I need everyones opinion. Would everyone want a 5 cent only or a 10 cent only coin mech?

       Most of the 1950's machines are referred to only as "ten cent machines" by the general public.

Well I was playing around the past two days and this is where I am so far. I have the shaft cut and am working on the ratcheting mech. This is just the housing. I am making the first out of thin metal so it is easy to shape and easier to work with. At least the easy part is done. In the pics I put an original side by side with my project mech. Not too bad so far. It only took about two hours to get this far.
