<p>[QUOTE="TheMont, post: 2577317, member: 80121"]Hand wrapped roll coins, especially in the older wraps, are the only kind I ask my bank for. Times are tough for some people and they are collecting coins from around the house or in jars that they drop their change in, wrapping them and bringing them to the bank to exchange for currency. My bank doesn't have a coin machine, so the only way they accept coins is in rolls, and it's pretty amazing what you can find in those rolls. I haven't hit the jackpot, but I have found silver and foreign coins. My bank also doesn't like $2 bills, half dollars, or dollar coins so they more than happy to give them to anyone who asks. I'm on good terms with the bank manager, so she encourages the tellers to work with me, again I've been using the same little bank for 20 years.</p><p><br /></p><p>After I search the rolls I give the coins to my daughter who uses a credit union that has a machine similar to Coinstar. You dump your change into the machine and it prints out a receipt that she brings to the teller to get bills. She also checks the shoot for rejected coins, which are mostly foreign.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
