Over the years, the endorphin triggering sound of coins hitting a metal tray has disappeared from casino floors across Las Vegas. It won’t surprise you that coin dispensing slots, with their million moving parts, require a significant amount of maintenance. In addition to maintenance, backfilling machines with coinage, and the requirement to handle all those coins is burdensome for the casino. Gameplay is also much faster when players use modern Ticket-in Ticket-out (TITO) technology vs. inserting and taking payment with coins and tokens.

With that in mind, we wanted to cover which Las Vegas casinos still offer coin-operated slots and video poker so that you can hunt them down!
Circus Circus offers one of the more extensive selections of token slots, about 20 machines, that dispense $1 tokens near the front entry.
Slots a Fun has about 8 quarter machines near the front of the casino that take and dispense real coins. Circus Circus and Slots a Fun are the only spot on the Strip to find coin slots at this time.
Main Street Station also doesn’t offer coin slot machines, however, it does have 15-20 quarter denomination video poker games that accept and dispense quarters.
Plaza has historically offered a number of coin-operated dollar slot machines, however, we’ve been informed that the last 2 coin-operated slot machines will be removed by November of 2019. Plaza will continue to offer several denominations of coin in/out video poker.

Realistically, coin and token-operated machines will continue to ride off into the sunset as parts becoming more scarce over time. At the 2019 Global Gaming Expo, a platform for gaming manufacturers to show off their new machines, there (not surprisingly) wasn’t a coin-operated unit to be found.
