I looked through Barry's items listed and didn't see a nickel coin acceptor. I have seen other people use or convert to the later model comparators, but I'm not 100% what you need to do to make them work in the older Ballys. I think you just need a 24v power supply, so that would mean tapping into the 50v circuit and using a resistor to drop the voltage,  I think.. You could Email Barry at Foxsslots and ask him if he has the older nickel acceptor, or he might even be able to help you convert yours over.. Sorry I couldn't be more help..
