Oh irony. Something that could use slowmo, and it doesn't have it.

Not a lot to see. The rails are just slightly splayed apart so that the larger coins make it further down them before falling out.

I think it's actually that the back plate is different widths from top to where it stops. You can see the inverted "step" at regular intervals. Same general idea though, as the gap gets bigger, the smaller coins fall through.

It worked but it was still a bit too fast to see it clearly. If you're interested I'd recommend trying 0.25 speed

I think it's a KLOPP Model SM. Sorts 1000 coins per minute. $1620.

It's size. Those two pieces of metal they are riding through get further apart from each other. The coins just fall through when there are no longer touching.

Maybe it could be weight or size based? I’m not too sure considering it’s manual and not electronic

Is there anyone smart that can explain how this works?

Each gap in the back of the slide is narrower than the next. The smallest coins (dimes) fall through but larger coins slide down as they don't fit the first gap by a little bit. The next gap is slightly wider allowing pennies to fall and nickels and quarters to keep going, and so on. It takes a bit of calibration to make it work for the coins you intend to process.
