I have a DK machine and have been using the wooden bucket coin drawer as a sort of piggy bank for my next arcade purchase and I was just wondering if anyone knows about how much money they hold. I've been pushing quarters in that machine almost everyday for the past year and it doesn't even look 5% full. I think the same wooden bucket was used in several other machines like popeye and stuff.

Full to the top with quarters, I would guess somewhere around $500-800.
I know of 2 people that bought machines without keys and when they took them home and drilled out the locks there was between $300-500 in the coin boxes and on the bottom of the cabinet.
