A prefastened, refastenable, disposable absorbent article includes an absorbent chassis, at least one stretch panel, and a pair a primary fasteners. The absorbent chassis defines a pair of longitudinally opposed end edges and a pair of laterally opposed side edges. The stretch panel is located in one of the waist regions and defines a waist edge, a pair of laterally opposed outboard edges which are located laterally beyond the side edges of the absorbent chassis, and an inward edge which is located longitudinally inward from the waist edge. The pair of primary fasteners are located on the laterally opposed outboard edges of the stretch panel and are releasably prefastened to an opposite waist region of the absorbent chassis to releasably engage a front waist region to a rear waist region to provide the prefastened disposable absorbent article.

The coin bank defined in claim 12 wherein said protrusion is a finger. 14. The coin bank defined in claim 12 wherein each of said plurality of coin holders is adapted to hold a respective predetermined number of coins, and each of said plurality of coin chutes further comprises a separate overflow passage for allowing coins in excess of said predetermined number to pass therethrough when said respective coin holder is filled with said respective predetermined number of coins. 15. The coin bank defined in claim 14 wherein each of said plurality of coin chutes includes a pair of protrusions extending therefrom for abutting opposing sides of the top edge of said respective coin holder and said overflow passage is defined between said pair of protrusions. 16. The coin bank defined in claim 12 wherein said coin tray includes an overflow bin for receiving said coins passing through said overflow passages. 17. The coin bank defined in claim 12 wherein said plurality of coin holders are removably disposed in said coin tray. 18. The coin bank defined in claim 17 wherein said plurality of coin holders are cylindrical and said protrusions accommodate orthogonal movement of said plurality of coin holders as each of said plurality of coin holders is brought into alignment with said corresponding coin chute. 19. A coin bank for sorting and storing coins of various diameters, said coin bank comprising: a housing; a sorter secured to said housing for sorting coins of different diameters; a sorted coin holder removably secured to said housing and adapted for holding sorted coins of a specific maximum diameter; and a coin chute accommodating sorted coins of a specific diameter received from said sorter, wherein said sorted coin holder is removably aligned with said coin chute for receiving said sorted coins therefrom, said coin chute including at least one protrusion for abutting the top edge of said sorted coin holder for maintaining said alignment while coins are conveyed there to and for accommodating the displacement of said sorted coin holder from said alignment for the removal of coins therefrom, said coin chute further including an overflow passage defined in a wall of said chute for allowing said sorted coins to pass therethrough when said coin holder is full. 20. The coin bank defined in claim 19 wherein said coin chute includes a pair of protrusions for abutting opposing sides of said top edge of said sorted coin holder and said overflow passage is defined between said pair of protrusions. 21. The coin bank defined in claim 19 further including a coin tray selectively mounted to said housing, wherein said sorted coin holder is disposed in said coin tray. 22. The coin bank defined in claim 19 further comprising: a plurality of sorted coin holders each having a top edge defining an open upper end for receiving coins of a respective maximum diameter and at least a partially closed lower end; and a plurality of coin chutes each accommodating sorted coins of a respective maximum diameter received from said sorter, wherein each of said plurality of sorted coin holders is removably aligned with a corresponding one of said plurality of coin chutes for receiving said sorted coins therefrom, said plurality of coin chutes each including at least one protrusion for abutting said top edge of said corresponding sorted coin holder for maintaining said alignment while said sorted coins are conveyed thereto and for accommodating the displacement of said sorted coin holder from said alignment for the removal of said sorted coins therefrom, said plurality of coin chutes each further including a wall having an overflow passage for allowing said sorted coins to pass therethrough when said respective sorted coin holder is full. 23.
