Just wondering if someone could educate me in coin entrances in your typical coin door used in all the 90's Bally / WMS coin doors. They are typically transparent orange and since there are alot of Euro's machines the entry is not correct for our money.
I found these as a reference - orange ones down the page.

Was there ever a Aus coin one for say 20 cent, $1 and $2?
Would people be interested in any of these?
Would people like other colour options if available - clear, yellow, red, green, blue, orange, purple?
though I am waiting on final colour options

You are allowed 2 votes so if you could vote for the most suitable colour as well as the most suitable coin value?
How this came about is I have a CFTBL and thought green ones would be cool in the aussie currency but could not find either option. I found a company that can print transparent resin (though not water clear but still pretty good).

Definitely interested in these, especially if you can make them with $0.50, $1 and $2 denominations. Would be happy with $1 only. Color orange or red most definitely. Blue and Green if possible. Would want to be relatively cheap though, not something I'd want to be paying more than a $1 - $1.50 each in quantities. Please keep us updated.

Will take all this into consideration but considering how they are made I will have minimal control over cost whether it be one or a hundred. I am only putting a small margin for my time and because I want a few in green and blue.
I know Markc is not the cheapest but on average the:
- coin entry chute is about $5
- coin reject button is $5.25
- coin reject button cover is $5.25
I will definitely strive to get them resin printed as cheap as possible but that is a bit out of my control.
In the end this will be suited for aussie money and custom colours, though I will definitely keep those that are interested up to date.
For others please participate and place your votes so I have some goals at designs mainly.

Those prices Mark.C has them listed for are ridiculous! Only someone who really needed/wanted an Aussie set would spend that much &^&
Most likely due to economy of scale though. If they could be made cheaply in a large batch, I'm sure many of us would buy them to have Aussie only coin entry plates on our doors. Once the price nears Mark.C's, I'd stick with what I had, unless they were badly burnt, have big holes in them or missing altogether.
Not trying to be negative, just wanting to voice my opinion.
-
no worries your opinion is valued and helpful, just I know unless I was going to make a couple of thousand or more could you even get the prices down to a point that is affordable, just thought to put it out there.
I will still design just so I can have custom ones and will post when I have made a set for the CFTBL
-
I personally would love a blue one for my Tron and would buy them to match any machine i had.
I think the main colours of Red, Orange, Blue, Green, Yellow would be great. Will watch this one with interest.
-
Yes green would look unreal in Cftbl and blue for white water. The new sterns use a different style button but could be worth doing them aswell if the bally Williams ones move ok.
Ill buy a green set and a blue set for sure ;) whatever the price
-
Meh, by the 90's coin doors had become generic and boring
I loved the old style doors from Bally Williams and Gottlieb
but if you do make something game specific I might buy one
