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 1979 Sharpshooter pinball machine in decent condition. It is made by game plan. I was wondering if you knew if it was a collectible and what the current value of it is? Thank you
Mark
Answer Hi Mark,
Your Sharpshooter was made by Game Plan in 1978, they produced 4,200 units. Value is $600.00 and value is rising, so yes Mark, it is collectible and is making you more money as we talk as the value is rising on this model.
