And at that point your letter got very interesting. We
rarely hear about British machines, and the fact that you
have English-coin 6d models of a chrome-finish WAR
Could you please tell me, (by return if possible) what you
would charge me (plenty of discount- poor Englishman) for

Also, do you have a service manual for "the Jennings

I have also acquired two War Eagles and Horsehead

Dear Julian,
Welcome to the ranks ofThe Coin Slot readers and to our
growing ranks of overseas readers. Thanks also or your
orderfor the "100 Most Collectible Slots... Volume 3 " and
the Wallace-Homestead price guide The books are on the
EAGLE (serial 273,795), a gold-typefinish WAR EAGLE
is super interesting history. Your serials werepassed to Dick
Bueschelfor coverage in his SerialNumber Update and he'll
have some interesting information about them.
Asfor values on these machines, as you'll see in your copy
of "An Illustrated Price Guide to the 100 Most Collectible
Slot Machines, Volume 3" foreign models of American
machines pay a penalty in value. But that's at the present
time. As collectors begin to understand the value and
uniqueness oftheforeign-coin models ofAmerican machines,
we'llprobably see quite ajump in value. And your machines
are certainly unique.
Thanks for writing.
