Coin reject trays gave me a bonanza of coins today.
While making my rounds dumping at various banks today, I can't believe all the coins I found in coin reject trays. I got 2 1943 steel cents, a gold colored angel token & about 30 cool looking foreign coins (see pic). One is the size of a half dollar. It amazes me that people are dumping so many foreign coins. I guess people do a lot of traveling. But I love coin reject tray hunting...that is, as long as I can get away with it. Its an extra bonus & gives the hobby a whole new dimension. I can go in the foreign coin business.
What do those 2 Canadian commemorative quarters commemorate?
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.

Great finds! In addition to the reject tray I also check any waste basket that might be next to the coin counter, as I will often find foreign coins in there. It is hard to believe that not only will people leave these behind in the tray but get them out of the tray and make the decision to toss them.
Jersey DEvil,
Nice finds!
I have been thinking of getting into CRH since first reading about it on Treasurenet.
But I always wondered where to get rid of the coins or do I have to re roll them all.
What banks in NJ have coin machines?
One must be smarter than the equipment they are working with!

Just call some banks around your area and ask. TD Bank has a machine for sure.
