How to fix elseif statement not running?

I've made an if statement with an elseif statement in a while wait() loop. But only the if statement run because whenever the if statement returns false but the elseif statement returns true it doesn't run the function in the scope of the elseif statement. Here's the code. Also the function is called whenever the player presses E while near the object I set it to.

01function RequestGemConvert()
02    local Coins = 0
03    local MaximumCoins = game.ReplicatedStorage.ConvertGems:InvokeServer(0,false) -- so we would only invoke it once
04 
05    script.Parent.GemConverter.Open.Value = true
06 
07    script.Parent.GemConverter.Background:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.5,0,0.5,0),"Out","Quint",0.5,true)
08 
09    script.Parent.GemConverter.Background.Add.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
10        Coins = Coins + 1          
11    end)
12 
13    script.Parent.GemConverter.Background.Subtract.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
14        Coins = Coins - 1
15    end)
16 
17    script.Parent.GemConverter.Background.Max.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
18        Coins = MaximumCoins
19    end)
20 
21    script.Parent.GemConverter.Background.Min.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
22        Coins = 0
23    end)
24 
25    script.Parent.GemConverter.Background.Convert.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
26        if game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("Leaderstats").Coins.Value == 0 or Coins < 5 then
27            module:SendNotification("Error!","You only gave the machine a little amount of Coins! You need to spend 5 Coins or more in this machine to get any amount of Gems!")
28        else
29            game.ReplicatedStorage.ConvertGems:InvokeServer(Coins,true)
30            script.Parent.GemConverter.Background:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.5,0,1.5,0),"In","Quint",0.5,true)
31            module:SendNotification("Awesome!","Successfully converted your coins to Gems!")
32            script.Parent.GemConverter.Open.Value = false
33        end
34    end)
35 
36    script.Parent.GemConverter.Background.Exit.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
37        script.Parent.GemConverter.Background:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.5,0,1.5,0),"In","Quint",0.5,true)
38        script.Parent.GemConverter.Open.Value = false
39        Coins = 0
40    end)

43    while wait() do
44        script.Parent.GemConverter.Background.Coins.TextLabel.Text = module:RequestPlaceValue(Coins)
45        script.Parent.GemConverter.Background.Gems.TextLabel.Text = module:RequestPlaceValue(math.floor(Coins / 5))

47        if Coins == 0 then -- Working if statement
