ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE COIN OPERATED VENDING MECHANISM A coin operated vending mechanism is provided, particularly for use with cab-nets in which newspapers and the like may be stored, for sale, upon insertion into appropriate slots of the correct coinage so as to operate the mechanism. Generally, a pair of coin chutes is provided, so as to provide for suitable combinations of coins. An anti-theft mechanism is provided, whereby return of coins in the coin chutes at the same time that the cabinet door is opened, or vice versa, is precluded -- i.e., either the coins will return and the door latch will remain locked, or the door latch may be unlatched and no coins will be returned. The anti-theft mechanism comprises a first rotatable plate which engages a latch plate on the door, and a second plate supported by the first plate, such that when the latch plate is moved when the door is to be opened, the second plate swings into a position which precludes movement of the coin chutes in which coins are placed to a coin return position; and when the coin chutes are in a coin return position, un-latching of the latch plate is precluded.
