Question
I have a Mills 10 cent slot machine.
The number on the case is 583026.
I was told by the person I bought it from that it was a made in 1947.
Is there a site where I can look up that number?

Answer
Don,

I'm not aware of a site with that information.  However, I can confirm that the machine you have (Mills 777) is called a "Hightop".  The Mills company started the production of Hightops in 1947 and they were very popular in the 1950's and 60's.
