What is the sound of coins being handed from one person to another?
I would say 「じゃらじゃら」 is probably most common for that action, followed by 「カチャカチャ」.
(Far) less common would be 「チャリン」 for handing multiple coins. That would, however, be a very natural onomatopoeia choice if you are dropping just one coin onto a hard surface.

1Perfect! I was trying to describe the sounds of the money-changers in the temple in Luke 19:45-48. Thanks! – Wendy Graham Mar 16 '19 at 17:09
