Coinstar question

[sagittarius98]

Manually thrown into the internal reject bin by a person? or automatically by the machine?

By the machine, If you bend down and put your finger under the machine. There will be holes at the bottom of the machine that are on the surface for the internal reject tray.

The internal reject bin is a small 3 by 2 cup that goes under the counter wheel. If you see a tech open the machine you can see it. Most of the time its just mangled coins but I have found IKE dollars stuck in there. Mostly clads but my LCS will give me 1.05 for each IKE I give them. Then they turn around and sell them for 1.50 each. I love coinstars. Lately though people have been more sauvy about keeping the coins the machine rejects. I mainly like to ask them if the machine rejected any coins, that I can add it to they returned total, or better yet, I will take the canadian that the machine wouldn't take. It's no skin off my nose and most of the time its newer canadian coins, but I have found a canook quarter and dime that was 80% silver that way.

I'm trying to visual this bin. I do recalled seeing a small white plastic bin belly high as Garoulady alluded to. But you're saying there's another one further down at the bottom of the machine?

Garoulady - DOes that mean if I deposited an Ike dollar onto a coinstar machine, the machine would automatically puts that Ike onto the internal reject bin?

yeah, Every single Ike dollar that I have seen go through the coinstar can't physically be counted. The reject shoot and the slide where coins go down to the storage bins are too small for the IKE dollars. So when they hit the counter wheel the wheel senses their weight and size and shoots it to the internal reject bin. So far I have gotten 12 dollars free of charge from the coinstar.Hope that helps.

Sincerely, Garoulady
