Usage of "specific number(s) of ~"

Question

Let's say you have a sentence below.

"These presents are only for the people who have 2, 4 or 6 coins."

How can I paraphrase the sentence using "specific number(s)"?

(1)"Presents for the people who have specific number of coins"?

(2)"Presents for the people who have specific numbers of coins"?

(3) Both above are wrong and here is the answer!

Thanks in advance!

It is always "a number of" (1). "Numbers" would imply multiple numbers, such as a 4, a 7 and a 2.
