ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a coin sorting apparatus comprising a stationary member, and a rotary disk supported for rotation and disposal under the stationary member contiguously with a lower surface of the stationary member. The coin sorting apparatus is constructed such that coins slide along the lower surface of the stationary member as the rotary disk rotates, and such that these sliding coins are guided into a coin passage. The apparatus is adapted to receive coins including a deformed coin bent such that a convex side thereof faces the lower surface of the stationary member. The coin passage has a recessed-profile configured to accommodate the convex side of the deformed coin to ensure engagement of an outer edge of the deformed coin with a radial inner edge portion of the coin passage.
