So it's a standard poker button with custom graphics and an LED bulb?  Neat!

You're going to have a hard time pleasing everyone with just 4 designs.  I think you will want some with 20c for Aussies, and some with pence, and maybe some with Yen.

Personally, I like the "PUSH FOR CREDIT" idea with the current font and 25c because that's what I grew up with.

However, I think it might be a good idea to lose the faux coin slot.  I just imagine you will have some drunk friend who remembers the original game trying to jam a quarter into the button (might be fun to watch anyway, though).

You might expand the label horizontally, something like this:

You could do that, but it's really not necessary as the upper and lower orientation pins hold it in position and the nut snugs it down tight.

For the most part.  The LED is the same as used in the NovaGem buttons.  A regular superbright wouldn't light these nearly as well.

Oh, and don't forget the pre-attached, 2x 48" of 20awg wire with resistor  ;D

Cool. This is one of those "doh" ideas that should have been obvious! Especially after that one member made his round "25c" illuminated credit buttons. This is the sign of true genius. The ability to think just ONE level above the rest of us.  ;D
