1Opinion of the Court

LAY, Chief Judge.

The district court determined that various coin-operated machines were taxable as gaming devices under 26 U.S.C. § 4461.1 *513The court held, however, that the machines were not to be forfeited under 26 U.S.C. § 7302. The owners of the machines have appealed, arguing that the machines do not fall within the definition of 26 U.S.C. § 4462 for several reasons. The Government has cross-appealed, urging that the district court erred in not ordering forfeiture. We hold the machines are subject to the special tax, but that the district court erred in not ordering forfeiture.
