Is the $1.25 worth of coins on the apron included?

Quoted from swampfire:

I got tired of the "Bally brick" drop targets,

I could help you with that problem...you have several titles I am looking for...let's start with Fathom

Quoted from jkashani:

I had a Centaur and it did not last. Although the allure of this iconic game is attractive, when the price point starts creeping up near that newer games, the sale is really geared for the "must have" collector. That said, the game is worth what someone wants to pay and still active for a month implies that no one is willing to pony up the 4G at this time. I was lucky and I sold it for what I had into it.

Much agreed...once you get around $4K for a classic game...you have a lot of newer titles that warrant that price range.

Quoted from Whysnow:

core games sell for 2k, then you add on 1500 in parts, and should factor in the labor to do the swap and refurb IMO.
I think 4k is actually on the low side for the effort put in and what appears to be a nice example.
I am half tempted to sell my game awaiting the time to resotr and buy this one.

I understand what you are saying, but there is a point that all the money in parts and labor will not justify the asking price unless you find a collector that REALLY wants the game for the higher price point. Like adding mods to newer games...just because you spent the money on them doesn't mean you will get full return.....my 2 cents

Another bump for OP
