The only symbols present during the respins are blanks or money symbols with a cash prize attached, an extra spin symbol, a respin symbol, or a symbol relating to one of the four jackpots.The only two symbols that can land in the extra grid position on the right are the winning symbol which collects cash prizes from the bag of coins and money symbols already on the reels. The other is the boost symbol, this adds the values of the money symbols to the bag of coins symbol.
Verdict
