    Coin Roll Hunting

    do you roll you unwanted coins?

    Do you roll your coins you take back to the bank or do you just bring them in in bags if you bring them in in bags what type of bags do you buy to bring them in?

    right now im just using a big ziplock bag is there a better choice because my zip locks rip sometimes.

    I use a about a dozen old canvas bank bags... I fill them up about half way each and can carry two at a time to the machine, dump, get my receipt and repeat!

    I just bring them in zip-lock bags or a canvas bag and dump them in the counter. For smaller dumps like a box of pennies I just use a generic zipper bank bag.

    I bought a canvas bag for my halves and just dump in the coin counter. I usually re-roll my dimes when I get MWR's, I don't trust the counter to count those correctly. Just personal preference.

    That diminishes your bankroll. If you deposited those skunk rolls, you could buy more every week.
    1/100 of an American dollar is a cent. It is NOT a penny. The word penny is used by several other countries, such as Great Britain, to denote their smallest denomination. In order to be numismatically correct, you must use the term cent to describe the American coin.

    The bank may be able to give you one if they have one.

    I was thinking of having a saving account at my dump bank so I could just deposit the value of the coins to my dump banks savings account. would that work too?

    Ill still buy more no matter what. Id rather just save them for a rainy day or give them to my kids when they get older. I do have three so im sure that no matter how many i could possibly save it still wouldnt be enough lol.

    Unwanted coins? I usually roll up all the Canadian change, (and I get a lot) dime rolls look short and I don't take any Canadian coinage to the bank so as not to tee off any tellers (learned my lesson with that).
    I buy pop and stuff at convience stores

    The only coin I wrap is halves. Place them back into the box and take them to one of my banks. They are appreciative. Everything else I dump into used nickel boxes and take them to a bank with a machine. I use canvas bags and the bags can hold four full boxes. They are walking over to the machine when they see me pull up. The machine is pulled out for easier dumping. They are more than happy to help me. It also helps when your wife makes cakes to give them. When the nickel boxes wear out, they are recycled and a new one takes its place. Cent and dime boxes are too small. I don't do quarter boxes.

    It depends on where I'm taking my coins, I don't roll my coins if I'm taking them to my regular bank because they have a coin counter. Yesterday I rolled some nickels to take to a different bank. One time when I was picking up coins I asked for something to take them home and they gave me a canvas bag with 10¢ written in sharpie on the side. I also ask for zipper bank bags when I first go in a bank, I have about 5 or 6 now. When searching dimes I split it up in 50$ increments to make sure the machine is counting them correctly. I've never had to buy a bag to transport coins, I have another canvas bag that can hold about 2k in halves. Sometimes I worry about handles breaking but they've held up so far.
