      This Final Amendment to Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 13E-4
(this "Final Amendment") relates to an issuer tender offer conducted by NACCO
Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). The Offer was
commenced on November 18, 1996 for the purchase by the Company of up to 800,000
shares of its Class A Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Shares"), at
a purchase price per Share not greater than $50.00 nor less than $43.50 per
Share, net to the seller in cash, specified by the tendering shareholders, upon
the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase,
dated November 18, 1996 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and the related Letter of
Transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal," which together with the Offer to
Purchase constitute the "Offer"). This Final Amendment is filed pursuant to the
reporting requirements of Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
and Rule 13e-4(c)(3) thereunder. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Purchase.

ITEM 1.  SECURITY AND ISSUER.

      (b) Following the consummation of the Offer, the Company had issued and 
outstanding 6,491,042 shares of Class A Common Stock. Since November 13, 1996
and prior to the consummation of the Offer, certain holders of the Company's
Class B Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Class B Shares") converted an
aggregate of 3,184 Class B Shares held by them into an aggregate of 3,184 Shares
of Class A Common Stock. Following the consummation of the Offer, there were
1,694,336 Class B Shares issued and outstanding.

ITEM 4.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

      The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Monday,
December 16, 1996. As of such expiration, an aggregate of 843,003 Shares had
been validly tendered and not withdrawn, including 272,831 Shares tendered
pursuant to guaranteed delivery. On December 17, 1996, the Company announced
that, based upon the preliminary results of the Offer, it expected to purchase
800,000 Shares at a purchase price of $50.00 per Share and, accordingly,
estimated that if all shares subject to guaranteed delivery were delivered the
proration factor to be applicable to the Offer would be 94.85%. On December 23,
1996, the Company accepted for purchase 800,000 Shares at $50.00 per Share in
accordance with the terms of the Offer and prorated such 800,000 Shares
purchased in the Offer in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase. Upon
confirmation of the physical delivery of 271,331 Shares of the 272,831 Shares 
that were tendered subject to guaranteed delivery, the Company determined that
the proration factor applicable to the Offer was 95.03%.

during the pendency of the Offer by certain affiliates of the Company:
