So I have a 2001 machine by Gottlieb.
When I got it I had to dril out the lock on the coin door and found that the coin acceptors were not there. It has two coin slots, a dime slot for 1 play and quarter slot for 3 plays.
I was wondering what the brand coin acceptor and or model number it would take. Also where I might find them
Thanks

The coin accepting mechanisms in that era were standard across Gottlieb/Williams/Bally and probably other manufacturers too. The only difference was the removable mounting hardware. Gottlieb used 4 short screws. Search for
coin mechanism
on ebay or post/search on parts wanted/for sale here.

Are the dime and quarter mechanisms the same or would I be tracking down two different types

From what I recall back in the day, Gottlieb generally supplied Coin Mech brand coin acceptors. The specific models you want to look for are D-120 (dime) and Q-130 (quarters).

IME, quarter mechs are east to find and can be purchased for a reasonable price. Lately, dime mechs are much harder to come by.
