A Gor coin and a royal banker
Posted: Thu Jan 24, 2019 9:56 pm
I recently purchased a Royal banker, a coin pusher from the 80s, which had been used on annual fairs. It's one of those machines where you insert coins. Then a moving platform pushes the coins forward, and this way also pushing all the other coins which are inside the machine. If a coin falls from the front edge, it is returned to the player. If a coin falls into the right slot, it is consumed by the machine, and you win a prize. If it falls into the wrong slot, it is also consumed and you win... ehm, nothing.
The royal banker is somehow special, as it does not check the coins being used. If the coin's size fits into the slot, it just accepts any coin... including my gor coin. This is the first time I ever found a real usage for the gor coin
Sadly, the machine is quite large and holds many coins. It will take a while of playing until I will get it back. The normal gaming coins which came with the machine have silver color, so at least the gor coin does not get lost...
