Abstract:
A system and method are taught for receiving a plurality of different sized coins (320-323) substantially simultaneously and outputting the received coins serially. The output of coins according to the preferred embodiment of the disclosed invention is controlled so as not to exceed a predetermined rate in order to accommodate systems downstream, such as a coin validator.
