COIN PRESSING MACHINE

Описание: This machine or product was not very intuitive when I tried it the first time. But then I asked the people in the shop to help me use it. They were speaking proper english but for some reason I didn't get what they were saying, haha. Like everyone, I imagined the machine to give me an engraved coin if I put money into the machine without me doing anything.

But this machine was very different for me, maybe it was quite normal for everyone else but the mental model I had of this kind of a machine was different I believe.

Firstly, the user has to select the design using the handle with respect to the stickers on the glass. After which you have to put two coins into the machine; one coin is for the payment and another coin acts as a material which is being used to press the coin and engrave the selected design. Now the fun part where the user gets to experience the flattening process by turning the handle multiple times until the coin falls out. Voila!
