I saw one, once. Guy was sorting and counting coins from a vending machine. He set up on a table, in the store near the machine. I found it fascinating to watch.

I was thinking of the fire pails, they used to use in retail stores. Now you mention sap pot, that makes more sense.

Well, others have guessed the others I thought I knew, but not 2586 which is a pin straightener for 7 pin miniature tubes. There are 8 holes so you don't need to worry about aligning the tube properly.
A quick google search found a collection:

BINGO! I had several! Damn! I forgot...

2582 does look like the red fire buckets filled with sand, but then why is there no handle? If you look on the web all of them have a handle. That one little hole does not look like it was meant to hold the weight of a bucket filled with sand.
Notice the blackening inside. My guess is this was a personal burn basket for getting rid of confidential documents before the era of shredders.
It's Coca-Cola Red, or at least it was... I'll guess it's the cap catcher bucket for under the Bottle Opener of a Coke Machine.
It would hang from a screw on the side of the cooler. Blackening would be from residual phosphoric acid due to fizz-overs.

Now I a believe those who say it is a maple sap bucket. here is an example:

2586: no idea
