191G Western Electric Pay Telephone

191G Coin Chute

191G Coin Chute
    The three coins, dimes, nickels, and quarters, fall down different channels.  The dimes and nickels strike the bell, labeled A.  The sound from the bell is picked up by the transmitter, C, which enables the operator to hear how much money has been put in.  The dime strikes the bell twice, the nickel strikes the bell once.  The quarter strikes a gong, which is a wire coil by the letter D.  In the other part of the phone there is a transmitter to pick up this sound as well.  B is the 10G lock as it looks from inside the telephone.
