• a plurality of dispensers for coins to be dispensed, the dispensers each comprising a hopper mounted on an ejector/counter, the each of the hoppers having an upper part for receiving pre-sorted coins or coins from the coin acceptance module and a lower part connected the ejector/counter,
• the plurality of dispensers being arranged in two parallel rows;
• wherein, in a deposit operation, the dispensers are adapted to receive the deposited and optionally processed mass of coins for buffering therein;
• and
• wherein, in a dispensing operation, the dispensers are adapted to dispense a specific composition of coins, under control of the control means, to a portable coin receptacle at a dispense location,
• characterized in that
• the upper part having
• a spout adapted to guide a coin dispensed from above the spout into the upper part, the spout being an integral projecting part from the upper part,
• the plurality of dispensers being arranged in a pattern such as each spout belonging to an upper part of a dispenser arranged in one of the two parallel rows is in contact with a spout belonging to an upper part of a dispenser arranged in the second of the two parallel rows, such as each spout being placed in a rectilinear pattern in relation to each other.
