There was an old merchant who had a peculiar collection of coins. He noticed that whenever he tried to split his total number of coins into piles of 52, he was always left with exactly 45 coins that didn't fit into the piles. Intrigued by this, he wondered what would happen if he tried to divide his total number of coins into smaller piles, each containing just 13 coins. What would be the number of leftover coins

in this case?
