so what do your coin counters read? what's the lowest?

this post probably exist's already i didnt search it but i was in my games tonight, my playchoice seems really low at 11,325 and my supersystem is at 27,307 i was just curious what yall's read. however i did find a quarter in my PC from 1998 kinda funny since the last sticker on it from the state of texas is 1991. my camera sucks but i did my best.

My lowest is my Kozmik Krooz'r, it's at approx. 1,833. My next lowest is my Space Duel and a Dig Dug both around 21,000. My highest is a Frogger with 109,974.

Dude - that's freaking crazy. Imagine if at least 100,000 of those plays were paid for - that machine has seen $25,000 in quarters.

You'r right and by the looks of the machine it really did see that many plays. I got it for free recently but it was dead, no monitor etc. and in very rough shape. It has since been totally restored.

 

[bottlejunkie]

got mine for free as well,fully populated with 10 games.

space duel <25
garvitar <250
liberator <250

primal rage probably has low plays as it was in atari's gameroom on free play.

the exidy max-a-flex I just picked up has a low number like 1200.

I don't have it anymore, but I used to have a PC-10 countertop with...

I don't have any idea what my coin counters are at. At least 2 of the 5 don't work but it doesn't bother. I have had most of them for several years so the numbers would be somewhat skewed. I got my fill of coin counter numbers when I ran a bowling alley arcade for 1.5 years. Had to write down the numbers from each of 60 machines every week when collecting. Had to compare the number for each one to the number from the previous week and see if it matched the number of quarters in the coin bucket. Fun fun.

I once saw a Space Fury cocktail that was non-working from the factory and subsequently stored for 25 years. The meter on it read 999988 (IIRC).

I have a Red Tent with one side having only 559 coin counts. It had Vs. Golf on that side so what do you expect. LOL

fixed.................

 

[gamefixer]

I scrapped a House of the Dead 1 a few weeks back and the meter read just over 650,000 clicks.

We dont like low meters since our games are out on route but my lowest that I recall was an UltraPin that only had 340 clicks on the meter after close to 2 years! Ugh...

Picked up an Asteroids in July that had < 1100, and does not have very much more now.

Dig Dug cabaret - 146 (came out of the Atari engineering lab)

Got an Asteroids that came out of the Atari Warner Arcade with just over 800 plays on the meter.

I've got a MKII with 3 total plays on it. It's basically spotless, and must have been put directly into home use. I bought it on eBay from a guy who got it from a guy who got it as an exchange for some money owed. So basically I had no hope of getting the whole story.

Only game that I've owned so far where I literally didn't replace or refinish a single part.
