if coin == 25 | 10 | 5:

If I replace the '|' with 'or' the code runs just fine. I'm not sure why I can't use '|' in the same statement.

Doing the following doesn't work either:

if coin == 25 | coin == 10 | coin == 5:

I know bitwise operators can only be used with integers, but other then that is there another difference from logical operators?

You might use them with sets:

a = {1, 2, 3}
b = {2, 3, 4}

a | b  # {1, 2, 3, 4}
a & b  # {2, 3}
a ^ b  # {1, 4}
a - b  # {1}
b - a  # {4}

They use the same symbols, but they're not bitwise operators anymore.

True, but it has the same semantics.
