Airship Profit Sharer by Jentzsch & Meerz, rare machine with complete profit sharing mechanism
Operating on Old Penny, pays out coins.
Approximately 19 inches Wide, 25.5 inches High, 7 inches Deep.

This machine is in full working order and mechanically fine with what look to be all the original parts internally though as it is around 100 years old (older even than me!) I can't confirm. Door sticks so could be sanded down

Bits that are not original are:
1) the coin entry cover (replaced a while ago)
2) the payout knob surround (see below)
3) the operating instructions which I have printed as when I got it it was just a badly handwritten card
4) the lock
5) cabinet finish which is painted rather than varnished
6) the airship pic - I made this as it was otherwise bare metal

The payout knob surround was missing so I have sourced a replacement but the screws into the back of it are 2mm too long so it is currently glued in place.
I don't have equipment (or patience) to take case back to original wood and stain it so sold as seen

That's a good price "Brianh"
Just a thought, it might help if you give a clue where it's situated.

Best of luck
