They are sorted by size and weight. Coins that are too lite or misshaped are spit out in the reject tray.

One can find information about coin machines on the 'Coinstar' website. Information about the different types of coin machines can also be found on Wikipedia.


Can you receive cash for your coins?

most grocery stores have arrangements to convert coins into cash e.g. Ralphs has coinstar machines.HOWEVER ...Unless you can find one that will convert the coins for free, CoinStar and similar machines are a **VERY** bad deal. Most of them keep anywhere from 8 to 10 cents out of every dollar you put in as a so-called "convenience" fee. Check with a few larger banks. In some cases they'll take wrapped coins with no extra charge. If you live in the northeastern US there is a major bank chain that will count coins for anyone about 6%, even if you don't have an account. Some smaller banks may charge less or do it for free.

Do Coinstar machines accept dollar president coins?

Technically they should accept all forms of small dollar coins - Anthony, Sacagawea, and presidential - because they have the same size, weight, and electronic "signature". However some machines may not be set to accept any dollar coins so you'd have to check around.That said, there are much less costly ways to convert coins to paper money. Unless you request the money as a gift card, most Coinstar machines charge a so-called service fee that amounts to about 9 cents out of every dollar counted. That means you'll lose nearly one-tenth of everything you put in. Check with some major banks to see if they'll count them for free. If you live in the northeast US there is a large super-regional bank with a 2-letter name and green logo that will count coins without charge, whether you have an account with them or not.
