Coin sorting disc with coin flow management features

A coin processing system comprises a rotatable disc including a resilient pad coupled thereto for imparting motion to the plurality of coins, the resilient pad including an outer peripheral edge, and a stationary sorting head. The stationary sorting head includes a lower surface forming a coin path for directing movement of each of the coins, a stripping area of the coin path including at least one stripping surface operable to retain at least one coin when overlapping another coin such that the other coin is separated from the at least one coin by the motion imparted by the rotatable disc, and a queuing area of the coin path that receives the plurality of coins from the stripping area, the queuing area including a beveled surface curving substantially parallel with the outer peripheral edge of the resilient pad to guide the coins in a single file configuration to a discrimination area.
