<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dougmeister, post: 2513439, member: 56842&quot;]I had a pretty sweet deal with a local credit union. I would go in every week and they&#039;d open up their coin counting machine. It is the &quot;spinning disc with narrow chute and strong magnet&quot; type, but different than a CoinStar. I would donate all Canadian coins to non-profits in upstate New York, etc. and they&#039;d let me keep the rest.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then today, the lady tells me that &quot;the Guy&quot; who cleans/empties/services the machine every week asked her why it was empty. She told him and he said that they weren&#039;t allowed to do that.</p><p><br /></p><p>I understand that the Coin Machine Company &quot;owns&quot; the machine and the bank/credit union is simply renting/leasing it.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, the bank/credit union obviously has a key in case someone wants to retrieve something that they legitimately put in by mistake, to clear jams, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>This leads to my question: <b>who actually owns the coins that get caught in the magnetic reject catcher?</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b></b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
