[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 8580490, member: 19250"]The machines only accept cent - quarter of US coinage. Having to deal with coin stars as well other machines in a retail food store I can tell you all about how they are set. Any coin that doesn't match the spects of a us cent through quarter will be kicked out. The machine that resembles a large refrigerator has very little inside. The bottom open to the floor holds two rectangular plastic boxes on dollies.When these are full the machine sends a message that it needs service. Basically a tech comes out seals the two boxes and replaces them with empty ones. Any coin that doesn't match a cent to a quarter is kicked out. A Canadian steel dime will cause lots of your change jar to be kicked into the rejection . The secret is to dump slowly and to pay attention to the coins being rejected. The machine can be programmed to handel any currency...but again limited to the agreement between the store and coin star. 99% of the time rejects are do to something on the coin, a piece of lint or paper and FO in or on the coin will cause rejection. As coin star doesn't want to be ripped off so their machines are top of the mark in technology. However on the floor under the machine lots of coins that missed the two plastic boxes. The floor is covered in coins. Which the tech needs to be observed cleaning up. Go though a hand fully from the rejection bin....one of those coins has something on it, or again some sort of FO in the bin. Which caused it to reject it as well other coins. And remember that US cents have different weights.[/QUOTE]
