<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drago the Wolf, post: 1532715, member: 22476&quot;]Well, I tried it, and it failed, but that was what I expected, and I&#039;m not going to lose any sleep over it. What happened was, I inserted the Ike, and it did not register, and it did not reject, either, so I put a few halves in, to try to push the Ike through the machine. The halves all went through and registered as usual, but the Ike got jammed up somewhere in the machine. I told the self checkout operator that I had put an Ike dollar in the machine, and it was neither accepted, nor rejected (I thought I was going to lose an Ike at first, but luckily the second person that opened up the machine, found the Ike), and the first person was like &quot;Whats an &quot;Ike&quot; dollar?&quot; and I said &quot;One of those big old Eisenhower dollar coins&quot;, and the person said, &quot;You mean a half dollar?&quot; and I said &quot;No, these machines accept halves. I&#039;m talking a big dollar coin&quot; then the one guy found the Ike and said &quot;Oh, here it is&quot; and I said &quot;Thanks, and I&#039;m glad that you guys&#039;s self checkouts accept halves, because I have been looking for a machine that accepts halves forever&quot;, and I told them that the machines also take the small dollar coins and $2 bills. (Dang it! I should have asked these managers if there was any way they could set their coin and bill dispensers to dispense these two denominations as needed. Oh well, theres always next time. :devil:</p><p><br /></p><p>All in all, I was NOT suprised by this outcome in this experiment. But I somehow had the feeling I would jam the machine with an Ike. :rollling: Oh well, nice try.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, one final test I should try, that should work, is the Susan B. Anthony dollar, but that should work the same as any golden dollar series. Same size. Same weight. Same magnetic signature. Different metal composition. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
