This is the only machine at Salem Wax Museum of Witches & Seafarers. When ask the store worker, she stated that this was the only machine at this store.
However, there were more at their Sister Store: Salem Witch Village located across the alley. I looked at Salem Witch Village and there were 2 additional machines. Machine 4 from Salem Wax Museum of Witches & Seafarers has been moved to Salem Witch Village and the cabinet has been painted black.
Note: That the current listing of penny in each machine has one penny from each machine listed in the other machine - Standing Pirate & Cat wearing a hat are listed in the wrong machine. (See new picture of Machine 3) Machine 3 seems to be rolling fine on copper. |
