A coin bar unpacking apparatus comprises a housing including an opening and a hole configured to accommodate a packed coin bar inserted through the opening, the hole extending in an insertion direction of packed coin bar and decreasing in diameter along the insertion direction such that a first diameter of the hole at a first location is greater than a second diameter of the hole at a second location that is farther from the opening than the first location. An inner surface of the housing at the second location restricts movement of the packed coin bar in a first direction when the packed coin bar is pressed against a rim of the opening in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction.
