Hello guy's i probably don t post where is good , sorry about that .
I just made a coin sorter and counter using a TCRT5000 sensor for a project, but i need now to do another s without using that sensor . And i don t know another s way s to do that , i need another s constructive alternative like 2 more , and i can t find anything on the internet .
If someone have any idea of what i can use i will appreciate , and please someone move this topic in the right section 
Thank's again .
Yes , that s awesome , i didn't thought of that, thank's a lot man , what do you think with microswitche' s would work ?
A common way of sorting coins is weight and size.
Size by making the slots the correct size; weight can be done with a spring loaded switch: too light weight (coins are heavy for their size) and it's probably not a coin and thus not counted.
Capacitive is yet another option, if light based is not allowed.
Go to youtube.com and search for "coin sorter" you will get lots of ideas.
