<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gatzdon, post: 379207, member: 8247&quot;]Banks can charge any fee they want for coins and they can do it selectively, provided they are not &quot;discriminating&quot; based on any of the criteria set by law (such as age, race, sex, etc....)</p><p><br /></p><p>Banks are also free to advertise fees and waive them for whatever customers they choose.</p><p><br /></p><p>Banks are not a government entity, but rather private corporations that are heavily regulated.&nbsp; I&#039;m pretty sure that fees for handling coins is not really addressed in those regulations (I admit there&nbsp; are a lot of regulations and I&#039;ve only searched them, but not read each and every word).</p><p><br /></p><p>Many banks do incur a fee specifically for coins.&nbsp; In large urban areas, a bank may have a contract that stipulates a flat rate for delivery/pickup that is ignorant of the amount of coin delivered/picked up, but as you mover farther away from urban areas, you&#039;ll find that the contracts start leaning towards a delivery/pickup fee based on the number of items picked up/delivered (e.g. bundle of cash, bag of coin, etc...) due to the need to consolidate banks into a route to minimize driving and exposure to robbery (amongst other factors).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
