Perfect solution...low cost...and effective!

...webcam.

Thats right.  A web cam.   I had an old webcam that I had lost the drivers for years ago that I mounted to the ceiling with the wire going in to the ceiling in the garage (where my "man room" is.   It plugs in to nothing.  It just sits there.   The kids all think I watch what is going on in the "man room" from my computer at work.   I tell them it sees all and records all.  They are convinced.

Muaaaaahahahahahahahaaaaaa!

My bro has a fully professionally stocked gambling room in his house. He has what looks like functioning cameras monitoring the roulette, baccarat, blackjack and poker tables. Any visitor is sure that they just can't be real. But for an eccentric like him no one is positive that they aren't for real.  ;D It's a modern Utah gambling speakeasy!

QuixoteQuest,  take the wires going from ground to the coin buttons and disconnect them from ground.  Connect the loose ends to one side of a toggle switch.  Connect a wire from the other side of the toggle switch to ground.  This will allow you to enable or disable the coin buttons by allowing or preventing the ground from reaching the 2 coin buttons.  This won't affect the other buttons.

Really, it's the ground I want to interrupt on those buttons--even though they are daisy chained with the rest of the grounds on the other buttons? I thought it would be the other connection on the button that would need to be wired to the switch. . .
