[QUOTE="FTWrath, post: 1360604, member: 35765"]I work in a very large Supermarket. We have our own coin machine (not coin star) and people seem to be choosing us over coinstar because we offer much lower percent take. This is because we handle all the coins ourselves. I spoke to my Customer Service manager and he said they are no longer allowed to sell the coins to customers. Something about us being able to get in trouble dealing with currency selling. BUT he said he would gladly let me trade coins. I figure, most coin roll searchers wouldn't dump their coins in the machine and take losses. So these are people who have happened upon half and dollar coins and simply don't see value in them. He said they recently emptied the Half Dollar bag because it was half full (they do at a certain weight) and it only had 2 coins in it from that day. BUT the dollar bag had over 60. Should I bother searching it? Is it even worth searching the dollar coins? I told him I'd definitely take him up on the half dollars but when I looked inside the dollar bag I saw nothing but gold (it wasn't a clear bag but slightly transparent). So more than likely all commemorative. What do you guys think?[/QUOTE]
