Abstract
A coin dispensing device and method is capable of insuring the dispensing of coins from a coin hopper even if a limited number of coins are stored. The coins in the hopper can be monitored and a control unit can direct the rotation of a rotary disc. Monitors can determine the dispensing and reception of coins including the amount of coins in the coin hopper. The control unit can cause the rotary disc to operate in a first direction for dispensing coins and in a second direction for agitating the coins and insuring receipt of coins by the rotary disc.
