Most money found in a game machine thread

Got this Mega zone last week. Realtor friends said she needed it moved ASAP. The game was supposed to be non-working. I opened the back found 217 quarters inside, an extra working PCB from Eldorado games. $54.25 think the most I have found in a game. Game worked fine, but had an LCD installed for monitor.

I think I have the winner, by far.
Short version of the story - I pulled a game for $150, got there in the rain, without asking, guy knocked it down to $120

Got it home, $1425 cash in it,
Sold cab for $200
traded rest of guts (it was a conversion) for $600 worth of stuff.

Before that, I had a game with $9.50 in it, with some Canadian mixed in and of course I have the sealed ziplock bag with the cigarette butt smoked by none other than Steve Ritchie himself that I found inside my Getaway pin.

I do think that the @LarryT porn haul is still the biggest win though.

aint no way. where's the proof? pix or gtfo
So I just take a pic of $1425 and you'll call that good?
If that is the case, then I have some beautiful waterfront property in FL I would love to sell you also. I can send you a couple pix.

Werent you signing off and going to pass out about an hour ago?

Are you sleep walking again?

Last time this happened my garbage can was flipped over and the neighbors dog turned up pregnant.
 
This won't be a winner, but a local businessman had a Watling Scale he hadn't gotten into in 20 years.

I pulled out a 12" bowl full of pennies, nickels and dimes.

Maybe I won by pure weight. The coin box was full. The coins were running up the drop chute.
