$60? Great deal. I would buy it. The machine doesn't look at all abused and I'm sure it can be rehabbed too.

funny of the 15 or so treadles I own I love my coffin tops better than the others. There's something regal and elegant about them. I only have one treadle in my main house and its my oldest and first coffin top. The others are awaiting their final homes in my guest house for when the house is redone and I can officially move my studio into it and set up shop!

I'd buy that one for 60.00 in a heartbeat. I love my davis machines, and this one is particularly pretty and in excellent shape.

Wow beautiful machine! I'd sure get it for $60 - that is a great price!

According to ISMACS there was a Coronet made by Davis that takes a 1x2 needle or Boye 10. Like Joe said obsolete needles, but you can still buy them on e-bay.

There is also a Coronet machine made by Standard that takes a normal everyday 15x1 needle.

What's not to buy? Yep, I would take her home for that price. So what if she is not in perfect condition, to me that tells a story and adds so much warmth and character. Many times I prefer that over a perfect one. Gives you one more reason to love her.
