By Stephen Kent Goodman

can be adapted to pneumatic operation that will withstand hard service?

 [ The device is known variously as a coin acceptor or coin slide
 [ mechanism or coin payment system; see, for example,

 [ The coin acceptor and coin box must be rugged to resist tampering,
 [ but an external electric (or pneumatic!) up/down ratchet switch,
 [ as in a pinball machine, could credit and debit the coins for
 [ a coin-operated orchestrion.  -- Robbie
