Picked up a beautiful Pinball Magic yesterday from a fellow board member, It had a few switches that needed tweaking and a couple of bulbs out so I opened her up to have a little fiddle about and noticed something Ive never seen on another machine,

Now did I just stumble onto a Capcom factory secret?

I noticed something as I was checking out under the hood of the game in the corner of the glass slide rail,
Upon closer inspection it seemed like a coin, Which it was, So I just figured it had got wedged under there over the years by accident and tried to pick it out by hand,
No such luck
It had been deliberately glued in place and the pictures show the glue residue, Now note the date on the coin 1993,
Plus the "patina" of the top of the coin which was tails up has weathered and changed color over the years, the 1993 heads side in is fine shape and I really think this has been there undisturbed for 21 years and someone from the Capcom factory put it there on purpose,

Could other pinball magic owners look at their game and see if they have it too?
Was this a good luck secret thing that the Capcom game staff did because it was their first game or am I just way overthinking this?
I would love to think this has a meaning and isn't just a huge coincidence

The serial number of my game is 0001809 Made November 1995 if that means anything to anyone
Everyone go check your games!!

Nobody else has the coin glued in their game?
Really thought I'd stumbled onto something there....

Penny never touched the glass and the glass channels looked original and clean and secure, No rattles
Not saying that isn't the explanation but I thought the year of the coin and cab plus the fact it was so hidden I thought I had found some kind of Easter egg from Capcom,

This used to be Art's game (Oldpinguy)
Art did you put the penny there messing with my mind?

Anyone know of a vendor that sells new apron decals for this game? I need the center "CAPCOM" one the most,
I can find the two triangular decals but not the centre decal

I'm sure I could upload a pic of what I'm after

Quoted from Mikonos:

I replied to SilverUnicorn and other users that mailed me here too:
Original reply in my thread (page 3):

About "Pinball Magic Centre Apron", many people asked me about print reproduction, because I did copies for Pinside forum users. In fact, I knew this forum because theses users invited me to post here.
"Pinball Magic Centre Apron" file. Reproduced by Mikonos.

Why I´m not doing new copies? Easy, it is expensive and people don´t want to pay cost reproduction. Let´s see all needed for do this reproduction:
1.- Printed vinyl with gloss protective lamination.
2.- A precut for this vinyl.
3.- Chrome die cut vinyl.
4.- Manufacturing: sticking chrome vinyl over precut printed vinyl.
*For reproduce this piece you need 3 machines and a manufacturing. This have a reasonable cost.
If you look for almost 5 users from USA interested in a reproductions, I will do new copies, but for now, I´m not asking mail about this issue.
IMPORTANT: I´m not a shop and I´m not working in a print shop. I´m only a fan user with skill and interested in printing arts.
