I have a Europa Star machine. It is a Bally 8xx series machine. It is missing the identification plate on outside. Are blanks of those available? Also, what model number is this? Anyone have the documentation?
-
Check the components inside the machine.
There is a good chance that the ID was marked on hopper or the reels chassis.
-
the cabinet style and gameplay is a model 831 ... except the three red buttons on the frame. If those do anything - typically hold-n-draw - then it would likely have been a game make for europe or australia.
as david mentioned, look for black sharpie writing on the hopper and reel wiper boards. Sometimes the model is printed on the reel wiper boards.
if no luck there, post pictures of the payout counter disc showing the M-645-xxx number and copper trace pattern and look for codes stamped into the metal slotted reel index discs.

To my eye it looks like a bally 1_2_3 machine with skill stop buttons. The wizard.
-
The reels are stamped with 584X29. The part number on the hopper is M654-141. There is a paper label on the door that says Bally 3X3F.
The three buttons stop the reels. There has definitely been some aftermarket wiring. I see an automotive wiring connector (molex?).

probably 584x29 or 584-29. That's consistent with a lot of 831 models, as is the M-645-114 payout disc. Many 831 models used the same index disc on all three reels.
afaik, bally didn't make a skill stop machine. However, if they did, if would have been for a non-usa market and I have a lot less info on those machines.
can you post pictures of the payout counter showing the wiring and all sides of the reel mech? If the site is not letting you post because the pics are too big, please email highest possible resolution pictures to slotpics@cdyn.com. File size as huge as you want :-)
