Hello everyone, I am new to the group and I am wondering if anybody can tell me what year this? A bit dusty. I tried to use the stamps to find out the number within the stamp to identify the year but can't see real clear. Any help would be awesome.

Unfortunately I do not have a key for the front. I will take pictures of the back and try to get a better picture of the stickers in the upper right-hand corner. Thanks for your response!

Re: Heiwa Pachinko
you do not need a key
there is a latch on the back right side.. same side and the lock.. you can lift the latch by hand and the glass should pop open a bit so you can swing it like a door..
the lock on the front is so a parlor attendant can open the machine from the front while the machine was in place.. for home use we have the advantage of having access to both sides

Re: Heiwa Pachinko
Welcome to Pachitalk! Nice looking Heiwa machine! Looking at the pic of the front...I can see that it has a low ball "stop playing" device". Hopefully no one has tampered with it!
When balls are low (in top hopper, I believe) a series of linkages drop a metal plate to block the input hole. It is a very cool feature, but is often disbled by past owners because they did not have enough balls to play.
