Description

You'll need a bit of skill to play this upright. Drop five cents in the head and pull the handle to bring the coin into position, and pull the plunger to kick it on to the play field. The nickel ricochets off the pins down the front of the machine, occasionally falling into one of the slots that releases the corresponding jackpot. You can see the money in each cup, but you've got to be lucky to hit a full one. A confident player might aim for the left target to release a $5 token. Mill Novelty Co. 1901.
