Howdy yall,

I need help identifying something my father gave me. He said it was possibly from a carnival and used to dispense dimes. (Five at a time) It says "The Exhib Supply CO Chicago, Ill" stamped on the front of the piece. It appears to be cast iron. It's about 12" tall, 8" wide and about 5"deep. It has a had lever on the side that you move up and down to dispense the change. He said he tried to locate what it was several times with no luck and now I am having no luck finding out what it is. Any help will be appreciated.

They are used for places where you make the same change over and over. You hit the lever get the 5 dimes and don't need to count. If you watch at some of the older arcades, they still use the quarter ones to make change.
