It sounds like a coin is stuck somewhere in the tumbler. It can be heard when tumbler is turning. Is there a way to take coin out?

Here are your parts

I cannot tell you where a coin would be since if there was a coin in the drum you should be able to find it.

Could be that it is inside one of the tumbling fins.
You will have to open the unit up to be able to remove and check them.

Another possible location would be in the blower.

Below is a link to another site.
You will have to join it and be logged in to be able to download any manuals.
Check in the manuals/dryer section.
They do not have one for your unit but perhaps one of the other Samsung manuals will be close enough to help you open the unit up.

The many dryers I have worked on over the past few years seem to have coins in just about every place that is possible. The blower is the likely place to look but they can be inside one of the tumbler fins. Almost all of the designs allow the fins to be taken off except a few which are molded into the tumbler in which case coins cannot get inside that type. You will have to open up the dryer to check for the source while turning the drum slowly by hand. A few years ago I worked on a dryer that had $9.80 in coins inside in various places. Quite a jackpot !!!
