:welcome:

It looks like it is either a 75 or 76 Nishijin Model B with a Royalty center feature. I have a machine with the same exact center feature. but my machine is about a year older than yours (I think)

Please post some more pictures. (especially one of the orange sticker on the right side there)

Man It doesn't look as good as it did then. I noticed some parts of the plastic broke around the lock. How did that happen because it is all intact there.

Do you know when that picture was taken?

Thanks for that picture. But I actually need to see the little digits at the bottom of the yellow square. No worries.

I'm not sure what you mean by restoration but it does increase value if you do it correctly. If you take it to someone to get it restored it will cost upwards of $500. (Which kills the value of the machine.)

Value is really hard to say on machines. It really depends on condition, rarity, and location. Unfortunately I can't give you an estimate on price because I haven't seen your whole machine yet. (need whole front and back pics) But if it is all complete I'd say $50 in any location.

Looks good from the front. I'll bump my estimate up to about $60 the back is the big thing that can drop the cost. Because if one part is missing it is impossible to replace which decreases value.

Yes, very normal, centers and pockets can be found across years and brands.

I love it when you find the Nishijin machines that have all clear plastic on the back! Once they have been fully disassembled, cleaned and reassembled, they are fun to watch while someone is playing the machine because you can see the entire back of the machine in action. I do not see too many of them where all of the plastic pieces are see-through. You scored!!

[mxfaiman]

Holy Cow!

That is a Nishijin Model B Ex-Change. In other terms the whole playfield can easily be changed. There aren't many of these that are left. Member Carlw sold one on ebay recently and I think it sold close to $100 (might have been higher) But you need to clean it to get close to that type of money. In my eyes it is a sought after machine. (but not as valuable as a power flash)

Oh and the date it was built is about 1977
