Found money......lost money?

:hello2:You could send them to me:laughing7:

Thanks

take them to the Bank
or the store
or put them in rolls &
take them to the Bank
or the store.

or if they wont let you cash it in,
take a pocket full with you when you go to buy things.

when your bill comes to $5.32 hand them a $5 a $10, a $20 or whatever
and 32 cents in change.

always pay the change in change.

Do you have an Aldie's near you ?
if you do & you have a Bent or Lawn mower Quarter
(chipped, 2/3rds or more),
take a hammer to it & Flatten it.
put it in the Shopping cart.
if you get lucky at the end they will swap
your cart out, or someone in the parking lot
will offer you a Quarter for your cart, rather then walk over and
dislodge one. :icon_thumright:

OR If you have a problem passing them on to someone else.

Let them lay :tongue3:

All US coins are legal tender if they can be still identified as a US coin until the US Treasury takes them out of circulation, banks will take dirty or corroded coins and they will send them to the treasury to be remove from circulation, if your local bank refuses to take the coins, take them to a Federal Reserve bank branch for exchange.

That being said banks will not take badly damaged or mutilated coins, these coins would have to be returned to the US Mint for replacement.

Buying, Selling & Redeeming

"The Treasury Department has prescribed regulations regarding uncurrent and mutilated coins.Uncurrent coins are whole, but are worn or reduced in weight by natural abrasion. They are easily recognizable as to genuineness and denomination, and they are such that coin sorting and counting machines will accept them. Merchants and commercial banks will generally accept or refuse these coins at their discretion. However, Federal Reserve Banks and branches handle the redemption of uncurrent coins. Uncurrent coins are replaced with new coins of the same denomination by the Federal Reserve Banks, then forwarded to the United States Mint.
Mutilated coins, on the other hand, are coins that are bent, broken, not whole, or fused or melted together. The United States Mint is the only place that handles redemption of mutilated coins, and they should be sent to:
U.S. Mint at Post Office Box 400, Philadelphia, PA 19106. Phone: (215) 408-0203
All uncurrent or mutilated coins received by the Mint are melted, and the metal is shipped to a fabricator to be recycled in the manufacture of coinage strips. "

Someones going to dig it up and get WAY excited, then open the jar and see a bunch of rotted zincs and lawn-mower coins and be like "ahhhhhh.... :icon_scratch: "
 

Except for a few chewed quarters, all my coins since 2007 have gone thru coin counting machines. I just pick up the discards and spend them. No one has ever turned them down. I do dig some completely corroded pennies that I just toss.

I don't toss the corroded pennies, I'm making a cache :icon_thumright:
unless they stop the Pennie first, then I'll turn them in for $$$$
 

Yep, I keep the corroded ones also. As long as they are recognizable they are cash, and I like cash:icon_thumright:
 

I find allot of reject coins in the Coin Star reject slot all the time,but most are in perfect shape when I find them.
 

Go to local park throw them in the air and find them again.
 

I turned in a roll of stained coins, not all beat up, the teller put my account # on the roll and the next time I went to the bank one of the higher ups chewed on me. I pulled my account from the bank and have dealt with credit unions ever since, usually much nicer service at less cost...................63bkpkr
 

I always had a simple way to launder dirty money.

This does not work for what some call pennies and others call cents. But it works fantastic for nickles and dimes and quarters. Every one is near a vending machine, like a soda pop or candy machine that you can get, chips or candy bars or pastries out of. Deposit 2 quarters, press the coin return. MAGIC! You are now probably handling a nice pair of clean quarters. A few coins here, a few coins there. Pretty soon it is all laundered.

DO NOT FLOOD ONE MACHINE! Spread it around a little at a time. They deal in massive amounts of coin, and yes they do often get bent, mutilated or crusty coins in a machine.

Notice, I did not tell you to stand there and put massive amounts into one machine. Spread the wealth.
