ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An electronically controlled, coin-operated latch mechanism includes an inclined coin chute through which different size coins travel at different angles to provide an electrical connection between different coin detecting contacts. An elec- tronic circuit is responsive to signals generated at the contacts to totalize and store the monetary value of deposited coins. When the stored value equals or exceeds a programmed price, an electromagnet is actuated to enable a hook to be pivoted away from engagement with a latching member. Subsequent movement of the released latching member causes deposited coins to be placed in a coin receptacle and resets the hook for subsequent latching.
