Smart Industries Magic Coin

A crane game with an RFID twist where special egg-shaped containers hold guaranteed prizes, and select coins unlock bonus prize doors.

Overview

The Magic Coin is Smart Industries' innovative take on the classic crane game, combining elements of a capsule vendor, crane machine, and instant prize merchandiser into one unit. The playfield holds 1,250 golden egg-shaped containers that each contain a guaranteed bulk vending prize, with five special eggs hiding RFID coins that correspond to specific prize doors. When the crane picks up an RFID coin, players insert it into the special coin reader to automatically unlock the matching door for instant bonus prize redemption.

Key Features

RFID Prize System

Five special RFID coins hidden among the golden eggs correspond to specific prize doors. When the crane picks up an RFID coin, players insert it into the special RFID coin reader on the front of the game to automatically scan and unlock the matching door below.

High Capacity Everyone Wins Design

Holds 1,250 prize-filled golden eggs containing bulk vending type items including stickers, rings, bouncy balls, tiny figurines, and other small prizes, ensuring no player leaves empty-handed while maintaining crane game excitement.

Five LED-Lit Prize Compartments

Features five prize doors with LED backlighting for good visibility. The auto-release doors accommodate larger prizes that correspond to the RFID coins, providing instant bonus prize dispensing.

Smart Claw System

Small claw assembly designed to hold one egg at a time with standard joystick and button controls for precise navigation. Small prize door positioned to the left of the console retrieves the won egg for prize extraction.

Security Features

Steel security padlock tabs on console and front glass door, tamper resistant and coat hanger proof cabinet design, independent locking coin box, and tempered safety glass construction.

Standard Equipment

Includes single coin mechanism positioned to the right of the player console, DBA ready system, credit/timer display with 7-segment LED, interactive sound system, durable Lexan front panels, and black cabinet finish with Smart's latest crane machine electronics.

How It Plays

Players insert a coin or token and use the joystick and button controls to position the crane over their desired golden egg, then activate the claw to pick it up. The egg drops into the small prize door to the left of the console where players open it to retrieve the bulk vending item or special RFID token. When players find an RFID coin, they insert it into the front RFID reader which automatically scans the coin and releases the corresponding LED-lit prize door for bonus prize redemption.
