You're not likely old enough to remember, but I seem to recall those were more for "making change". More commonly used at businesses like gas stations and drive up restaurants, where walk up and drive up customers needed to receive change after their purchases, without the attendant or waitress having to run back inside to get change from a register. When 3 gallons of gas was dispensed at a "full service" station in the 1960's there was still change from a dollar. Then again my first visit to Vegas wasn't until the mid 1980's where you'd just use casino struck coins or entire rolls of quarters. Cool blast from the past!

FDR from Seinfeld had one when he sold hotdogs in the park.

Those are heavy! Says past Sonic Roller skater. Cool 😎 stuff.

Back in the day, in the old country. those were used most by people in the industry of public transportation, mainly bus, and taxi drivers.

Good Humor Ice Cream Man In the Park , City Bus Drivers , Taxi Drivers , Sabrett Hot Dog Push Cart All Used Them When i Grew Up In The Bronx NY. Back In The 50's And 60's i Have 3 Coin Changers One Mc Gill And 2 Johnson Changer . The Johnson Changer Was More Heavy Duty But I Saw More Mc Gill Changers Growing Up The Ones I Have Look Like New Made In USA . The Johnson Changer Is Still Made In The USA But The Mc Gill changer Is Now Cheap China Junk And it Looks Terrible . I Got My Vintage Mc Gill On Ebay Brand New In The Orig. Box New Old Stock From Back in The Day Long Ago

buses had coin changers very similar to this where i live until recently when they switched to cards only. i was always fascinated with them as a kid

Every service stations in the 60’s had them

Paperboys used these a lot. These little devices made providing change to customers.

I’ll have to eventually use one at work just researching. Good vid

When I was a kid waitresses at Burger Time used these.

I own one as well👍 very effective if you live in a state that has sales tax
