Question about counting out coins from a till. What's the best way to do it?
I often need to count out a £50 float using the smallest coins. I was shown how to do it by adding up to £1 and using a tally chart to keep track. Thing is, if you fuck up or get distracted, you need to start from scratch. Is there a better/less error prone way of doing it? I know you can just write down how many there are, but that's kinda irritating in itself when you're trying to add up to £50.
Also, consider the UK has a shitton of coins (1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p).

Yeah, that's not happening.
I mean, it's not horrible, it's just easy to get distracted when counting out £20+ in small change.
Just use cash drawers with automatic weightable coins. ik1 and ik2 from mogler/germany or tellermate/England

I'm a cashier and I'm afraid I don't understand your question. Do you use cash bags? Any electronic scales? What's the exact task you have to do and why is it difficult? I use cash bags for bulk coin and keep track on paper, amending it whenever I make up a fresh bag or have to break out an existing one.

We use cash bags, we do not use scales or have a machine.
We gets lots of change. I need to count out £30+ in small-ish coins to make up the float for the next day. At the moment, we tally out each £1. But it's easy to lose track if you get distracted.
