I have no pin experience.

A friend has a 1973 Gottlieb King Pin. The 100s digit sticks. Would this possibly require a particular lubricant, or is it possible that a tooth could be broken on a gear, or other conventional issue?

Please advise on any—lube recommendation, gear replacement recommendation, or other. Any expertise would be greatly appreciated.

Probably a good cleaning. If one is sticking, the others are not too far behind. A light coating of 3-1 oil will be fine.
 
BTW, this game appears to be something of a predecessor to Gottlieb's 1995 Strikes n' Spares.

The two games aren't noted as being related on KLOV, but I'm wondering if this is an historical point that was overlooked.
