I manage a shop now, does it show?

But we won't.
its very very good
Why not do what the banks all do, and simply weigh them, as long as the coins are separated into 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, £1, and £2, denominations you can easily weigh out tens of thousands of pounds worth of coins extremely fast - seconds if not minutes including double and triple checking, not taking the time it takes to sort them all out into their denominations into account which is very fast and is even automated - funnily enough it is done automatically by both size and weight is how the coin changers in Tesco that charge you a % do it, you can easily weigh out tens if not hundreds of thousands of pounds in seconds if not minutes.
I use to do this before I discovered ''round-up'' apps, I would use 2 liter kiln jars - and multiple jars for each denomination, for 1ps, 2ps, 5ps, 10ps, 20ps, 50ps, £1, and £2 coins. And I would do this for a year, as in every year make multiple trips to the bank to deposit the coins into my bank account - not joking it wasn't unusual for these buckets to weigh over 20kg each. Now it might be because I still make a lot of cash transactions - in fact I paid for the house I live in with cash not because I'm super wealthy but because the property was in such a state of disrepair and needed a fortune of work done to it to make it habitable again that it was valued far far too low to qualify for a mortgage on. No exaggeration, I used to regularly deposit over £5K a year in coins that I collected into my 2 liter kiln jars every year into my account, and it would take minutes at most to do, the teller would simply tip the buckets of coins into a machine that weighed them out and totaled them up.
I really enjoyed that film, thought it and the idea behind it was brilliant.
To be fair, it doesn't take *that* long, it's just an annoying faff for almost no gain when the total value of coppers in each till is never over £1.

Balanced against the time over a year that a salaried worker would cost to do the job, it might just work out OK.
(I still want to phase the damned things out though
