Antique wooden vending mach - but what did it vend?

Hello all, new to the forum.

I picked this cute machine up yesterday (stands only 10 1/2"), but for the life of me can't figure out what it even vended. There are 2 coin slots, one on each side at the top, releasing either drawer. I've never seen a machine without a makers name, number, or symbol, but the there is none to be found. The owner seemed to think it was English, perhaps took a half-dime as no American coin fits just right. Any thoughts on what it is? Thanks much for any answers on intriguing piece.
(i can add other photos if requested - thanks again)

Interesting, I have never seen one either.
Are those glass windows in the machine? Perhaps it was a bulk vendor, something like peanuts, and sat on a bar.
I hope someone knows what it was and lets us all in.

I do believe it vended cigarettes, one at a time.
