Change for a Buck

As I approached the pop machine with my crisp dollar bill, I notice the thing says, “Exact Change Only.” The drink I wanted was 95 cents. I turn to my friend, and asked, “Can you break a buck?”

My buddy Rodger reaches into his pocket, and says, “I know I have six coins. The six coins add up to $1.15, But I can’t make change for a dollar.”

I say, “Huh?” Can you make change for half a dollar?”

Rodger says, “No.”

I then ask, “Can you make change for a quarter?”

Rodger says, “No, I can’t do that either.”

“How about a dime?”

“Nope.”

“A nickel?”

“Nuh-uh.”

So, I say, “Can you just buy me the can of pop?” To which Rodger replies, “No, I can’t do that, either.”

The question is, what were the 6 coins in Rodger’s pocket? They are all American coins currently in circulation
