Question
Rodger,
I have a 1964/5 Gottlieb "Lancers" (2-player) and a 1961 Williams "Riverboat".  What are the current values of these machines?

Answer
Hi There Ashley, As of 2007:
Gottlieb Lancers, average value is $425.00, there was 1,700 units produced and first came out in September of 1961, this is a two player game.

Williams Riverboat, average value is $625.00, there were 1,650 units made starting in September of 1964, and this is a one player game.
Hope this is what you are looking for.
Thank You!
Sincerely
Rodger 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!
