Default Centre console

Apologies if this is the incorrect area, but I have a 2019- (68 plate) V60 manual and just under centre console there is a front sliding panel which is presumably there for small items like car park coins etc.
Trouble is, just underneath it there is a trapped coin which makes a noise whenever I accelerate or turn. I’ve had the side panels off and its definitely stuck in a small space between the base of the small compartment and some more plastic. To remove the compartment unit (2 Torx) I need to remove the trim around the centre console but I can’t work out where the fasteners are!
Anyone out there who has worked this out? It doesn’t sound like much but once you know it’s there..........

I’m going to reply to my own thread, I’m afraid!
So I took off the passenger side panel, removed the 2 Torx screws in the floor of the forward compartment (the one with the spring loaded lid) and eventually, after trying a magnet, compressed air and finally a vacuum cleaner, the 20p coin came loose with gentle tapping on the underside of the compartment. Every time I tapped with a small electricians screwdriver handle I could hear the coin jump and eventually it dropped down.
Phew!
