The Box, Coin-collecting, No. 14 superseded the
Box,
Coin-collecting, No. 13. These are of the pre-payment type. This box introduced a new style plug and
socket system for the Mechanism and an internal Bellset. This
arrangement meant that the box was effectively self contained with no need
for any external equipment except the telephone instrument. The Bellset used was dependant on
the type of exchange the coin box was connected to. As a telephone
was used there was no use for the receiver or hook switch on the side of the
casing. Some of these early cases were reused and in these cases the hook switch slot was just filled in and can probably still be seen under the
paint. Variants:-
Box, Coin-collecting, No. 14 - Used in Public Kiosks.
Box, Coin-collecting, No. 14A - Used in subscriber premises.

Component parts of a Kiosk back board

On CBS systems a Partition D/60967 was fitted in
the lefthand Container.
This was used for storing the batteries. The cover has been removed in the
picture.
The coin mechanism looks like a prototype - as there is a magneto generator within the
case.
