Single Coin

Single Coin is an electro-mechanical pinball machine from Bally Manufacturing Corporation. It is a conversion of Bally's 1962 bingo machine 'Shoot-A-Line,' converted for single-coin, single-player operation.

As a bingo-style machine, gameplay centers on 28 holes on the playfield, with players inserting a single coin to play and attempting to land balls in scoring holes to earn payouts based on the pattern achieved.

As a conversion of an existing Bally bingo title rather than an original design, Single Coin illustrates how operators and manufacturers repurposed earlier bingo machines during the 1960s. Details about who performed the conversion and when are not documented, but it remains an interesting example of the bingo-machine conversion practices common in that era.
