2 coin escalator - is that normal?

I've got a Mills 25 cent Black Cherry, but the escalator only holds 2 coins, even though the opening and glass can accommodate coins all the way across like smaller denominations. The teeth that hold more quarters are not there. After 2 coins are in the escalator, a third coin pushes one of the 2 coins and it rolls the rest of the way down the escalator to the coin chute.
Is that normal/common for higher denoms?
Thanks,
Dave M

I've heard them referred to as "quick drop" escalators. Some of the old operators did that to eliminate some of the jamming.

Some of the new operators do that as well know what I mean. The parts are available to restore that back to the way it should be.
