Question

slot
do you have any idea of what type of machine this is and what it may be worth (can send other pics if necessary)
all writing is in german have found referance to super serie 666 made by bergmann &co +- 1968 but couldn't find pic to verify- any info would be greatly appreciated

Answer
Hi Lee, There were a lot of these German wall type slots brought into the country in the 1970's along with the Japanese pachinkos.  Neither of them is very valuable, with yours having a value of $200-300 if working.  Happy Hunting!   Larry  www.coinoplibrary.com
