ABSTRACT:
The receptacle includes a coin insertion slot (32). The slot (32) may be closed by a flap (40) which is fixed to a bolt (34) having one end (46) capable of moving out from the receptacle in order to lock the receptacle in a slot machine. The bolt (34) is capable of being moved by means of a knob (42), and a latching mechanism (52) holds the bolt in its retracted position with the coin slot (32) closed by the flap (40) after the bolt has once been moved out into its locking position, thereby ensuring that the coin slot of a full coin receptacle remains locked until the receptacle is itself unlocked by a person authorized to do so, e.g. by means of a key.
