As Lloyd said, you have an earlier EM coin box in your game instead of one made to fit the larger coin door. The handle is too high on ones that go in earlier EM's. The sliding lid is also another give away. The later coin door had a lid that sit inside of the box instead of sliding on, just like the Countdown box in the above pics.

It looks to me like a late Gottlieb lid in an early Gottlieb box. The handle is too high for Gottlieb's (late EM through System 80A) with the larger door and frames.

Quoted from wayner:This appears to be another variation on what I understood to be cash box design. In this ebay listing at pic 11 the cash box lid does not slide but is located in the cash box by bent tabs although the cash box has slide provision. I have not previously seen this type of lid.
