coin door question

<< < (2/4) > >>

SirPeale:
One is a lockout coil, it makes it so you can't put coins in the machine when it's off.

The other is a slam switch.

Kevin Mullins:
So are the Canadian quarters the same diameter as the US quarter ?

Ken Layton:
No, Canadian quarters are smaller in diameter than USA quarters.

Kevin Mullins:
Thanks for the clarification Ken.
So someone would defineately need the right coin mech to begin with.

--- End quote ---

Canadian collectors use Happ US mechs regularly -- they work fine after removing the magnets (20+ US mechs for me so far).

The difference in diameter between US and Canadian quarters is less than half a millimeter.

If ordering new, I would tell a Canadian to order Canadian mechs. If he already has the US mech (or comes across a great deal on US mechs), remove the magnets.

Cheers
