AboutRodger Knutson Expertise I am an expert on old coin operated machines, slot machines, trade stimulator's, jukeboxes, old arcade machines, etc. I have been identifying these for people who respond to my web site listed below, for a few years now. In almost all cases I am able to tell them about their old coin operated machines, the year, the value, and other general information about their machines. I do not know much about soda vending machines, coin banks, or scales, but I will try to help you with these if I can.

Experience I bought my first slot machine, a .50 Cent Mills Black Cherry in 1969 and have been hooked from that time, I still have that Slot machine! Before that I found a open barrel full of old scraped jukebox wall boxes behind a restaurant, I wanted them all but never took a one of them. Anything that took a coin drove me nuts!
Question I have a Bally Circus Queen Pinball machine that belonged to my father. It is IPD no 667 and was made 12/15/1960. It is in excellent condition. Can you tell me what it is worth? I cannot locate a price guide anywhere.
Answer Hi Stephanie,
Well the hit the year right on, it's a 1960 game, and the short, cover name for all of these type games, is a Bally wood rail bingo pin. The Bally Circus Queen has 25 holes and the "Magic Screen", with a value of $450.00. If you want to find a pinball price guide that list this machine, it's listed in Mr. Pinball, pinball list & price guide.
