penny tray
Coin courtesy container
A penny tray is a small dish near a cash register where customers leave unwanted pennies and others take pennies to make exact change.
The informal system smooths transactions when totals end in awkward amounts: I grabbed two cents from the penny tray.
Also called a take-a-penny tray or leave-a-penny tray.
