although it is possible at coin exchange machine in the video arcades,
but it's no wonder that fake money are used by foreigners like him >>21822236
however, video arcades machine is the most convenient bc no "fee" of exchange.

basic Japanese (日本語 Nihongo) :
# video arcade : ゲームセンター game center, but calling ゲーセン GaCen usual.　
# coin exchange machine : 両替機 ryigae-ki
so, no one use such strange japanese "kanekuzushi", pls forget it right now.
金崩し kanekuzushi is wrong,
yet, (お)金を崩す。 (o)kane wo kuzusu. = 両替する。ryogae suru. is correct.
okane is formal style, without first "o" style is frank.

many stores that do not accept money exchange according to their own rules,
but it is worth trying, in Japanese 500Y coin(s) is called "gohyaku-(Y)en dama" usual,
in formal japanese is "gohyaku-(Y)en kouka" tho.

dama(玉 tama) means gem, including real coins, not used for notes.
kouka(硬貨) means coin as money, notes are お札 osatsu, "--- Yen satsu" usual.
