Abstract
Abstract The present invention refers to a coin dispensing device which pushes out one or several coins at a time from a plurality of coin tubes in such a manner that dispensing the correct number of coins is always ascertained. Variation of the number of coins to be dispensed is accomplished by replacement of a single adjusting member on the coin cassette. Thus eliminating the necessity of modifying or adjusting the base unit.
