New pound coin

[part-time-operator]

is good news, a lot of smaller operators will decide it's not worth the hassle. 18 months time probably a good time to buy rounds.

I like the positive attitude Barbara. Its still a pain in the a**e. 350 coin carriers to change!!!!!

Hi Andy

Yes indeed, a right pain, but better than having to replace the whole coin mech. 350 is going to take you a long time and loss of revenue too. Now the next question is, how are they doing the phasing ..... I do feel for the operators and I know how we felt when the announcement was made a few years back - utter panic and dread. No compensation from Mr Government either!

doesn't fit, diameter wise ok. Just width is too wide.

Hi Matt

Aren't they the same thing?

Do you mean thickness/depth ok but too wide?

so its to thick for existing coin carriers or too wide diameter wise??

[Coin Operated Group]

Width is fine, Diameter of new coin is slightly too large

Might be able to grind the old coin carriers to right diameter?
