An upright stand is provided for a coin-operated machine, such as a coin-operated telephone. The stand employs a base firmly attached to an underlying support from which a column having vertical enclosing walls rises upwardly. At its top the column defines a seating opening for receiving a coin-operated machine, such as a coin-operated telephone, in snug, seated engagement within the seating opening. The coin-operated telephone is laterally confined within the enclosing walls of the column. The stand employs an internal mounting system by means of which the telephone is secured within the confines of the column at the upper end thereof by fasteners which are inaccessible from the exterior of the casing of the telephone and from the exterior of the column. Utilizing the stand, a coin-operated telephone is protected from thieves seeking to steal money from the coin box, as well as from vandals.
