My dad always pays everything by cash, literally for as long as I can remember, also in Italy is way more common to pay by cash then by card. With cash comes change and he would not care about it and throw it everywhere around the house, so every once in a couple of months I would go around the house and search for all the coins in the most obvious and most random places. I would count them up and go to a bakery owned by a family friend who always needed spare change and he would give me back cash. My dad let me keep the money and we would then deposit in a bank. I never touched it and just let it sit almost having forgotten about it. At 19 I used the money to pay my tuition fees for my first year at university and still had some left!
I buy everything in cash, I buy the dollar coins when we get them from work, it's been so hard not to spend during those rough patches. I promised my kids we wouldn't till our vacation in March. I know for a fact of buying at least $10 worth of dollar coins every week, it's up there. We have 2 of those giant coke bottles full. I wish we could cash it out now just to see where we are at but I promised my kids!!!! Come on March! That is why I am watching these videos! I am so curious! We have the lid tapped so we can't sneak out change when we need that extra money. We started this in 2020 when our vacation got canceled. Tell me you change story!!!!
I went to my local service/gas station awhile ago late on a Saturday night and found out they had run out of coin change (they had just enough to cover my purchase,) I told the lady serving me that I had a little over $40 sitting at home and she would like I could go get it, which I did and now when ever I see her I get a really big smile from the people who were working that shift, a smile always feels good. Cheers.
I am watching this in SHOCK!!!!!!!!!!! These people should've gone through all the coin while at home. There soooo many "P" dimes out there it is amazing. ( I did not know this til my sight started to not be so good and not I use a magnifiying glass to check for dates and mint markings. You would be shock what people pass up.)
I've done a few times too, one time that sticks in my memory (but isn't as much as $40) I caught the bus to work first thing in the morning, it was day before pay day and I had to raid my change jar, embarrassed I told the lady I was sorry for all then change. Oh god no, I'm in desperate need of change.
It most likely would have spat out any silvers as the machine rejects them. As for pennies... it seems there are more zinc pennies circulating these days than coppers. In short, you probably didn't miss much.
DavidB you would be surprised at the amount of silver you find in the return tray. Such as a lot of quarters more then anything . Start looking in the return trays as you pass and sooner or later you will find coins in the return tray
As someone who rolls my coins and takes them into the bank or uses a coin machine AT the bank, the huge coin star fee they had to have paid pains me way more than it should 😩
The banks in my area won’t take coins anymore. Last time they took my annual cash in was 1998. They had an attitude at that. I reduce my coin horde by grabbing a handful when going out. Then paying for lunch with them…
Back in the 90's when I still used cash, every day for a year I would not spend any change and come home and put it in a bucket. At the end of the year I cashed it in and it was just over $800.
I had a huge collection of coins like that once, and let me tell you that sitting at home, counting, and rolling them is half the fun. Seriously, sitting at the table and watching the rolls of coins adding up was a lot of fun.

It seems up to the business. Some do not want unsorted coins since they'll have to reroll them anyways. They can also tell by weight if you want to turn in $10000 in pennies or something crazy.

carina ramirez same ! I’m starting to do this now ! I can’t wait . I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to cash it all in. It seems sad saving for so long and then it’s all gone lol
I went into a chase and they said to do it at a coin star at Walmart or roll up the coins in the wrappers. I got 90 bucks and would have lost 13 if I used the coin star and did the voucher option, also the e gift card thing looked way too sketchy.
1943 pennies were made of steel with a zinc coating. As such they are magnetic. Those machines have magnets in them that pull out any magnetic coins (some foreign coins are magnetic). Too bad you didn't run those coins by a coin collector first, who knows what valuable coins were lost into the CoinStar machine!
As a coin collector I'm always saving my change and after I get a few hundred saved up I search each coin for old, rare or double die or even silver coins. I would of had a blast searching thru all those coins. Never know what you might have until you look! I find quite a bit of valuable coins from time to time!
I took $249.00 in mostly junk silver coins and walked out of the coin store with over $5,000.00...because of the collectables. Those coin machines are a rip-off.
I always save all my change no matter what. The most I ever saved was about $200. I say it's always better to keep your change instead of giving to a cashier at a store. It's like having a third account for extra money.
My mom's old best friends sadly is a really nasty hoarder. When her house got completely cleaned out and then fumigated and everything they do after clearing out as severe hoarder house they found over $900 in change
As a teen, I helped my grandmother clean up her cousin's house (after the lady passed away). She was a hoarder. We found hundreds of dollars in coin and bills, just all over the house. Also checks that had never been cashed. This was close to 50 years ago, so it would be like $ thousands today.
It probably does that due to its weight vs.value. 1943 pennies were supposed to be made out of steel due to the war effort. A steel penny is worth minimal. However, if you locate a 1943 copper penny, that is an entirely different story. Copper 1943 pennies are worth quite a bit. (Don't be fooled by fakes. Hint: it should not stick to a magnet) In 1944, they were supposed to switch back to copper. A few 1944 steel pennies made it through into population. Those are also worth some extra cash.
Nice job guys. Since something tells me you’re the type of folks to use the change in your pockets to complete your sale. Like I’ll always say, “oh hold on, I have the 18 cents” or whatever the change is in my total sale. I use all the money I carry around because it saves me less trips to the ATM. That’s how I budget and save money. *edited as I lost my train of thought lol. Meant to say it’s impressive that you saved that much in coins. But I’m also the type to pick up coins I see in the street. 😊
I pick up coins, cash my aluminum cans, too. One year I had enough to pay our electric bill (about $55.) PLUS 2 out of state WI fishing licenses, at $50. each.
1943 pennies might have been the steelies, not made of copper since it was being used in the war efforts. They probably have a different weight than a standard penny.
Hanna Kin that weird penny is actually a "newer" than 1982. In the middle of 1982 the U.S. Mint started making pennies out of zinc with a copper wash. The penny she found got stuck in the bottom of a washing machine and kept going in circles between the agitator and the inside drum. Wore the copper wash off around the edges and the center area.
Larry Ciarrocchi - Larry, thank you for that info. My mother used to be a coin collector but I moved away from home in the mid seventies so know nothing about coins post 1975 or so. That's interesting news, thank you for sharing!
My daughter and her husband saved enough quarters to go to Disney World. Every Friday they’d get a roll of quarters when they got their paycheck. You might think quarters don’t add up, but they do. They started when their first child was born and we all went in 2002.
Here's a tip for all you brave souls.. I saw a RUclipsr who said where to find money, paper money and coins... The car wash vacuum filters!! He would go after hours open up the vacuums take out the filters, go thru the dust. When people vacuum out their cars they don't know what's going up that hose he found so much money it was incredible I want to do it but I'm afraid I'm going to get caught on camera.
I filled one of those old glass water bottles once with nothing but pennies,it took me 16 years to fill it. When I counted them out into coin rolls,I had $400 in pennies.
I worked at Ralph’s and when coinstar operating right behind registers we could no hear cashiers or the front end manager. Also we would run up and see if people were getting over $200 because all stores only kept a certain amount of operating cash at front desk and for all registers for the day. Usually about $2000 on weekend. Excess picked up by brinks every day. . So it was good you were getting a gift card.
lyricwritertoo yeah....Steve would have been super paranoid if we stood there an hour and the whole world knew we were gonna have a pile of cash! 😱 gift cards and no fee was the way to go. It was SO loud though. That poor store!
@@asierunai5787 I found a 1964 dime in the slot return of a coin star. I check that slot every time I pass one. I've gotten about $2.75 in American and foreign.
StevenSteph pennies 1982 and before are copper but some 82s are copper and zink the silver quarters and dimes are extremely easy to check for just look at the edge solid silver it’s silver silver with copper it’s not silver but could still have dye errors Nickels are silver 1942-1945 and are EXTREMELY valuable Also check you’re bills for star notes and “fantasy” serial numbers The star nots can co for 3x+ face value the fantasy serial number ones depend on the number Google what errors to look for and when u think u have a retired coin or bill take it to a coin shop
Many banks no longer will count coins in a machine due to the inaccuracies of their machines. Our local branch of BMO/Harris got rid of the machines, and hands you the rolls to roll the coins yourself if you want to...
Even if they don't have a machine, they have to take your deposit if you are an account holder giving them US legal tender, count it yourself first, make a deposit to your savings or checking account at the counter and get a receipt. If they don't have a machine, they have to ship it to their office that does and make them call you if there is a disrepancy. It's US money, not a game since we aren't on the Gold standard and you can't choose how you get your change or pay or rent or whatever.
I have been teaching my grandkids about coins and made them collections books I got binders and plastic sheets and made slots with index card so can put coin in slot and write about coins. We found 16 of the Sacajawea coins and just so happens we had the two thousand cheerio ones and they are worth a lot of money I think the kids got like thousand dollars a piece so now we check on real good. Like dimes before 1964 are 90% silver 13 dimes is 2 ounces of silver
TheDriftdog haha most went to groceries! Dog food, Jerry’s on a medication that is nearly $60 a month so I got those, bought presents for birthdays and baby showers for the grandkids etc! Nothing exciting! Stuff we would have bought anyway 😆
It's not stealing if you warn people before they pour their coins in and they accept the terms. Coinstar is a business, if they can make more money from coins other people gave up, good for them. Steve and Steph chose to give up their coins because they didn't want coins lying around anymore. This is just like people throwing things in the trash, and Steve and Steph go dumpster diving and take things someone else gave up and resell or donate things. How is it any different? One is a company, the other is a couple, both doing essentially the same thing, just on different scales.
😱 😱 😱 I love this machine, back in Papua new Guinea 🇵🇬 we don't have this machine, and the way you guys collect coins is amazing, seriously PNG should have this in our country.
When I pick from house clearance I find loads coins in carrier bags or large bottles. Keep a collection for a couple of months, and then take it to supermarket coinstar and pay for clothes and grocery.
Never take your money to a local Coin Star unless you like giving a part of it away. Use your credit union or bank but you have to have an open established account or they'll pinch a percentage as well. Nothing's free when it comes to trading coins for paper money.
Dawn Bradley yes on the other channel like a year ago I think? It was live and really long! Steve wanted a short version out there because it was so exciting!
I was curious too, and if they got it from some unique source it might have been worth a little time to grab a numismatics book look up the value of some coins. My old next door neighbor when was a kid had inherited a vending machine company; pinball & arcade games, snack machines, (bad) coffee by the cup, etc. He started scanning the coins as he separated them, a habit his late father had never bothered with. He found an extra $10,000 per year on average for taking an extra half hour per day.
I received the coins in the '70's. Among them, near the bottom of one of the cans, was a $20.00 "Double Eagle" Gold Coin. Trust me, it went (and still remains) in a safety deposit box. :)
Damn I used to do that all the time save my change and take it to the coin machine to cash it in for money but they don't have machines like that anymore in my city that I know of you got to go to Banks now with coins rolled up or the teller in the bank gives you the paper rolls to roll your coins up in and then they gave you the cash after you do that,no more cashin your change in a coin machine,not in Philly.?
Eric the beast no it takes old pennies, but it was talking about 1943 pennies specifically, which were made from low-grade steel due to the copper shortage during World War 2. The pennies had the same design (known as the Lincoln-wheat by many people) that was in production since 1909 that were 95% copper before and after 1943. Then after 1982, I think, they were no longer copper, just copper coated.
@ericthebeast1277 Wrong on Two Accounts! A: If that were the case they would return them to you! B: They don't count The Steel one's Either, so wrong again!

David Upton they just wanted cash. Some people don’t want to sit and look through a shit ton of coins. Maybe if it was less, but that’s way too much to sift through.
@David Upton I check my coins every time I get any. I currently have two change purses in my purse. Spendable coins go into one and savable coins go into a smaller coin purse and eventually into my lock box.
They are worth a grand total of: one penny lol. Despite being discontinued hundreds of millions still exist and even it if it is old (fourties) it’s not worth more than 3 cents likely.
Hmm? I find this interesting. I recently took a bag of change to my local supermarket in hopes of using their Coinstar machine. Unfortunately, I was greeted by a message on the machine's screen informing me that its kiosk was full and that I needed to find another Coinstar in my neighborhood. After watching your guys put a shopping cart's worth of change into the machine you used, I'm curious, I wonder how much change it takes to fill one of those things? And, congrats to you two. That's like finding a $2K dollar bill in a jacket you haven't worn since last winter! Party on!
When I was a waitress MANY years ago, I would come home and throw all of my change in a huge jars when we finally decided to take it to the bank it was over 5 thousand dollars that we used for a vacation. It was like we had free money. We still do the same thing, but it is no where as much as we cashed in that day.
At the end of World War II they only made a limited amount of penny’s as focus was put on ending the war and the people who made the coins did other jobs, Penny’s were barley produced in 1943 making them pretty rare I’m surprised the machine doesn’t snatch them up, that’s cool. Also saw a comment saying they were made of a different material, this may be why that machine can’t accept them, but all in all they are rare keep your eyes out!
You would have been better in buckets, easier to take in and out of the trolley. I had to take $12,000 worth of mixed coins to the bank once, it was so heavy i couldnt believe it. And when the bank staff saw me coming in the door they all ran for cover. They took the coins and i had to go back 2 hours later.
Lol, as a coin collector this is painful to watch. I would've loved to check all of these for old, damaged or collectables. N watching those dollar n fifty cent pieces being put in the machine absolutely killed me lmaooo.
My Coinstar experience was rated at "F THAT!!!"... These Coinstar machines in my area are set anywhere from 12-17% service fee which means I can easily go to the hassle of rolling it myself and taking either to the nearest corner store or bank and save $12-17 on every $100 worth of change thank you!... Since most people do not count there change beforehand, they simply do not know what they are really getting charged for using this service... Try this sometime?... Count out about $50-60 worth of small change first and then feed it into the machine and see what comes out?...
@@StevenSteph Gift cards are not real cash period!. They have very limited spending power compared!. I think these machines are a rip-off and I still would recommend the corner store or bank instead!... But each to their own?.
ytrewq6789 we opted for amazon...we buy almost everything we use from them including groceries delivered. It was an excellent choice of us! Bought all of our kids and grandkids Christmas and birthday presents with it too! It was awesome! 🎉 would definitely do it again since our 3 banks won’t accept unrolled coins (Citibank, Wells Fargo and BofA in our town)
If that machine isn't paying out the correct amount. Its riged to do that becuse the older machines at the bank don't miss a coin, even more reason not to use them.
I just rolled all mine few weeks ago I had $1540 and thats not counting pennies they take for ever i have a big water jug full . I had 67 pounds of quarters .
Oh like last week I got a 1936 silver quarter. The week before that a silver 1960 dime. I always get alot of Canadians or other foreign coins, Sometimes American coins as well...
Coinstar is apparently a real rip off I’ve heard!!! I would have used the coin counter at TD Bank. If I am not mistaken they have a couple in each branch and they are completely free. x
Did you see the fee on the screen it wanted to take for the $513 transaction? The fee was $61 if you got a cash voucher (~12%). Absolute robbery. Just go and tip it into coin machine at a bank and get a $0.00 fee. But i guess they shop a lot at Amazon and didn't need the cash, so was ok for them as it doesn't look like the Amazon vouchers have a fee.
@@brendanfarthing - The Counstar machines also have gift vouchers / cards for other retail stores and I think I even saw restaurants listed when Steph was performing a transaction. I buy a shit ton from Amazon and Whole Foods. $2000.00 on a voucher / giftcard for my home or business usage wouldn't be a big deal. I would think buying some of the clearances or daily deals and looking hard enough there would be money to be made at their sales as well at Amazon still without just buying a liquidation box.
why does random junk keep popping up on my feed... and weren't these machines in a class action lawsuit for knowingly skimming a % off each transaction? Probably started with $2500 and walked away with a smooth 2k :P
If you go slowly they are really accurate. If you go fast, you might lose some money. We put two counted $100 lots through and lost less than a buck, but when we put $100 counted through fast, we lost just under $4! But it does tell you to slow down, so that is probably what keeps them from being sued. The class action lawsuit occurred when people got gift vouchers, such as the ones they got from Amazon and the printing was so unclear they were not able to redeem the certificate, not due to incorrect counting.
Any other coin collectors wishing they could sort through all that
YES
Yep.
More than anything

Hardly any banks do that any more, I has to roll tthe coins for chase. I had over $900 in coins. Coinstar would have taken about $90.
Mine refuses to do it. They tell people to go to coinstar or put them into rolls.
You guys should brush up on your coin knowledge because there was probably a lot of money in old coins in there that you could have sold!!
Offset printing of the coins are worth at times a lot of money.
Of course you would have probably spent the rest of your life looking them over.
I would run out of life before they were all counted. lol I'm old. I had just learned that tip online somewhere. Love your picture of the VW Beetle.
ya but it won't be as much as if you turn it in to cash probably
@@TERRY-td8lk you should check your coins before tossing is save jar
I just love how you two work so well together. 😊
1943 pennies were made of steel with a zinc coating. As such they are magnetic. Those machines have magnets in them that pull out any magnetic coins (some foreign coins are magnetic). Too bad you didn't run those coins by a coin collector first, who knows what valuable coins were lost into the CoinStar machine!
I'm more amazed that a Prius can haul all the coins without breaking an axle
Mike Nor 😂
LOL good one!!
That was because if maybe the weight was even coins in the back her big ass in the front....lol... I like a women with some meat on her bones...😁
I'm sorry but that was funny 😂
Bass Pro37 I don't care what you like, that was not funny 😠
As a coin collector I'm always saving my change and after I get a few hundred saved up I search each coin for old, rare or double die or even silver coins. I would of had a blast searching thru all those coins. Never know what you might have until you look! I find quite a bit of valuable coins from time to time!
I took $249.00 in mostly junk silver coins and walked out of the coin store with over $5,000.00...because of the collectables. Those coin machines are a rip-off.
No doubt the coin store would have made their own vast profit from your coins too...!
william wallace what are junk silver coins?
@@ladymother5488 pre 1964 coins that are usually silver
You are a liar!
West Idaho Mountain Man yes before 1964 dimes and quarters half’s then 1964 to 1970 are 40 percent sve
I always save all my change no matter what. The most I ever saved was about $200. I say it's always better to keep your change instead of giving to a cashier at a store. It's like having a third account for extra money.
Nik Pizan that’s a good point! I try to spend it since it weighs down my purse but I should save it and put it in the jug again!
Yeah. I am at the point now that I only spend $5 & $20 bills.
Yep my home piggy bank has saved me more than once. Janice
SAME
Nik Pizan just sort the good ones out and roll the rest and u can spend rolled coins at a store
As a coin collector I would love to have the coins left over! Some of them were really cool looking.
My mom's old best friends sadly is a really nasty hoarder. When her house got completely cleaned out and then fumigated and everything they do after clearing out as severe hoarder house they found over $900 in change
Meaghan Grace wooooow!! That’s at least a good thing that came from it I guess! ❤️
Meaghan Grace
Meaghan Grace, WOW😲
As a teen, I helped my grandmother clean up her cousin's house (after the lady passed away). She was a hoarder. We found hundreds of dollars in coin and bills, just all over the house. Also checks that had never been cashed. This was close to 50 years ago, so it would be like $ thousands today.
Meaghan Grace hi
It figures. The machine keeps the 1943 pennies because they are worth money.
And the gold and silver.
Lol.
It probably does that due to its weight vs.value. 1943 pennies were supposed to be made out of steel due to the war effort. A steel penny is worth minimal. However, if you locate a 1943 copper penny, that is an entirely different story. Copper 1943 pennies are worth quite a bit. (Don't be fooled by fakes. Hint: it should not stick to a magnet) In 1944, they were supposed to switch back to copper. A few 1944 steel pennies made it through into population. Those are also worth some extra cash.
@@duffhole6304 Yes Daddy!
If this machine was coinstar, they reject silver coins, and they do not like steel war pennies!
I need to get a life! Next a paint drying video. ;)
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Watching grass growing is just as exciting.
Nice job guys. Since something tells me you’re the type of folks to use the change in your pockets to complete your sale. Like I’ll always say, “oh hold on, I have the 18 cents” or whatever the change is in my total sale. I use all the money I carry around because it saves me less trips to the ATM. That’s how I budget and save money.
*edited as I lost my train of thought lol. Meant to say it’s impressive that you saved that much in coins. But I’m also the type to pick up coins I see in the street. 😊
I pick up coins, cash my aluminum cans, too. One year I had enough to pay our electric bill (about $55.) PLUS 2 out of state WI fishing licenses, at $50. each.
1943 pennies might have been the steelies, not made of copper since it was being used in the war efforts. They probably have a different weight than a standard penny.
Hanna Kin makes sense! Thank you! ❤️
Its because the right 1943 pennie is worth 1 million dollars, so they will not return it if your not in know and give it to them...
simon centeno only if it’s not steel.
Hanna Kin that weird penny is actually a "newer" than 1982. In the middle of 1982 the U.S. Mint started making pennies out of zinc with a copper wash. The penny she found got stuck in the bottom of a washing machine and kept going in circles between the agitator and the inside drum. Wore the copper wash off around the edges and the center area.
Larry Ciarrocchi - Larry, thank you for that info. My mother used to be a coin collector but I moved away from home in the mid seventies so know nothing about coins post 1975 or so. That's interesting news, thank you for sharing!
I just spent 20 minutes of my life I can never get back watching coins being cashed in......FML
My daughter and her husband saved enough quarters to go to Disney World. Every Friday they’d get a roll of quarters when they got their paycheck. You might think quarters don’t add up, but they do. They started when their first child was born and we all went in 2002.
How wonderful!
That's a terrific idea!
Here's a tip for all you brave souls.. I saw a RUclipsr who said where to find money, paper money and coins... The car wash vacuum filters!! He would go after hours open up the vacuums take out the filters, go thru the dust. When people vacuum out their cars they don't know what's going up that hose he found so much money it was incredible I want to do it but I'm afraid I'm going to get caught on camera.
Cool Tip Mass Thank you 🙏😎
That's where all these coins came from 😂😂
This is illegal. As someone whose husband does maintenance on these incredibly expensive vacs. You are STEALING
DO IT!
#2:31 "Wheat" may be referring to "Wheat Back" Cents (1909 - 1958) These have two wheat stalks on the reverse (back) of the " Lincoln" Cents.
You two got screwed royally by not checking all those coins!
Definitely not the smartest people!
Coin stars eject the silver coins
Mary Ricketts how would the machine know the difference?
Dutchess Eberline that was rude. Why even comment at all?
@@Oglulubell Correct ! what a rude FAN lol
Guess who’s about to start saving her change 😁😁😁😁
😂 ❤️❤️
Same here
Took the words right out my mouth😂
nikeyathepoet .__ me too 😂
What do you do with it currently?🤔
Omg the way he feeds that thing is giving me anxiety..ugh lol too much at once lol
jjzladyk yes 🥴😄
I agree!
First bucket dumped in there made me start sweating
So it wasn’t just me???
During world war II, the Fed made pennies from steel instead of copper. Copper was used for war materials
i just wanna know how long it took them to save all of that😭
I was wondering the same thing. Also is any of it from dumpsters?
@@glendagaines8887 Dumpsters?
“That clinking, clanking, clunking sound is all that makes the world go round”
I filled one of those old glass water bottles once with nothing but pennies,it took me 16 years to fill it. When I counted them out into coin rolls,I had $400 in pennies.
I can only image how many wheat pennies where in there.....
Wow!!! That’s a LOT of pennies! Wonder what the copper value would be?!
hamOn Rye I have found many wheat pennies and silver coins in Coinstar reject trays and in the trash can next to the machine.
Melanie J and probably well over $1,000 in copper and dye erred pennies
Elizabeth Marks-Graham no there were very little copper,and wheat pennies. I checked all that while rolling them. :)
I worked at Ralph’s and when coinstar operating right behind registers we could no hear cashiers or the front end manager. Also we would run up and see if people were getting over $200 because all stores only kept a certain amount of operating cash at front desk and for all registers for the day. Usually about $2000 on weekend. Excess picked up by brinks every day. . So it was good you were getting a gift card.
lyricwritertoo yeah....Steve would have been super paranoid if we stood there an hour and the whole world knew we were gonna have a pile of cash! 😱 gift cards and no fee was the way to go. It was SO loud though. That poor store!
I’m so glad you opted for Amazon Gift cards. They were gonna keep over $60 from your first $700
If you find silver save it. A dime is worth over a $1 right now.
Tessa Cunningham ok! We check our change before we dump it into the jug, so we definitely will! ❤️
Keep coins before 1965, 90% silver ;) ... Shame i'm not in USA :( ... GL!
@@asierunai5787 I found a 1964 dime in the slot return of a coin star. I check that slot every time I pass one. I've gotten about $2.75 in American and foreign.
Tessa Cunningham it was $3 for a silver dime just a few years ago one without die errors
StevenSteph pennies 1982 and before are copper but some 82s are copper and zink the silver quarters and dimes are extremely easy to check for just look at the edge solid silver it’s silver silver with copper it’s not silver but could still have dye errors
Nickels are silver 1942-1945 and are EXTREMELY valuable
Also check you’re bills for star notes and “fantasy” serial numbers
The star nots can co for 3x+ face value the fantasy serial number ones depend on the number
Google what errors to look for and when u think u have a retired coin or bill take it to a coin shop
Many banks no longer will count coins in a machine due to the inaccuracies of their machines. Our local branch of BMO/Harris got rid of the machines, and hands you the rolls to roll the coins yourself if you want to...
Albert Lilly literally if someone paid me some of the money, i would count all of the money and roll it for someone
It’s why some places including in San Francisco don’t have them. Hopefully when I move someday there will be machine.
Even if they don't have a machine, they have to take your deposit if you are an account holder giving them US legal tender, count it yourself first, make a deposit to your savings or checking account at the counter and get a receipt. If they don't have a machine, they have to ship it to their office that does and make them call you if there is a disrepancy. It's US money, not a game since we aren't on the Gold standard and you can't choose how you get your change or pay or rent or whatever.
I have been teaching my grandkids about coins and made them collections books I got binders and plastic sheets and made slots with index card so can put coin in slot and write about coins. We found 16 of the Sacajawea coins and just so happens we had the two thousand cheerio ones and they are worth a lot of money I think the kids got like thousand dollars a piece so now we check on real good. Like dimes before 1964 are 90% silver 13 dimes is 2 ounces of silver
Phrase of the day: “My u have a lot of coins”
Next video suggestion - what you bought from Amazon?
TheDriftdog haha most went to groceries! Dog food, Jerry’s on a medication that is nearly $60 a month so I got those, bought presents for birthdays and baby showers for the grandkids etc! Nothing exciting! Stuff we would have bought anyway 😆
Where are you people getting that
Har i sparet alle de penge op i spare. Grisen. Hey have yuo spar ol this Money up in a sparegris
Hvor meget har i sparet op. Nu. Hvor meget har i fået. Hvor har i fået alle de penge henne har i sparet. Op i spare Grisen
TheDriftdog That would have been a great idea
I would of LOVED to organize those coins for you guys. I just love organizing coins
The 1943 penny is made of steel and is worth more than a penny. Both items are worth more so the suggestion is to keep.
Fun fact: "$" and "¢" were originally symbols for Pesos and Centavos. You have a 5 pesos and 50 centavos coin.
You can party all night in Mexico with that...
5 pesos coin and a 50 cents coin both from Mexico because keep in mind there are other countries that use pesos as well
I’m more curious how they obtained a bassinet from a hospital. I didn’t know they just threw those away like that. 😂
You can get almost anything at different auctions of old equipment....medical, agricultural, tooling, etc.
I believe pennies in the 1940's will give you great dividends.
1943 pennies are steel pennies, copper was running thin during ww2
So CoinStar steals the expensive coins from people. Yet another reason not to use them.
It's not stealing if you warn people before they pour their coins in and they accept the terms. Coinstar is a business, if they can make more money from coins other people gave up, good for them. Steve and Steph chose to give up their coins because they didn't want coins lying around anymore. This is just like people throwing things in the trash, and Steve and Steph go dumpster diving and take things someone else gave up and resell or donate things. How is it any different? One is a company, the other is a couple, both doing essentially the same thing, just on different scales.
New subbie, binged watch all day while sick in bed. Love your channel, love you two!
Just found your channel! You guys are too cute together, love the doggy too!!! Great video!!
crissy vt21 haha awesome! Welcome! Thank you so much! His name is Little Jerry Seinfeld ❤️ 🐶
I just started depositing my coins after 10 years of saving made 3 trips so far a few more to go
😱 😱 😱 I love this machine, back in Papua new Guinea 🇵🇬 we don't have this machine, and the way you guys collect coins is amazing, seriously PNG should have this in our country.
Why don't you find a bank with a coin counter they don't charge?
My bank has a coin counter and doesn’t charge a fee
When I pick from house clearance I find loads coins in carrier bags or large bottles. Keep a collection for a couple of months, and then take it to supermarket coinstar and pay for clothes and grocery.
1943 are most likely steel war pennies (copper went to war effort.)
I have one that had a little circle sticker, that read inspected by # 43. Still have it.
Richard Scott most likely, imagine missing out on a copper 43! 😂
Never take your money to a local Coin Star unless you like giving a part of it away. Use your credit union or bank but you have to have an open established account or they'll pinch a percentage as well.
Nothing's free when it comes to trading coins for paper money.
$1,940.61. Wow almost 2,000 dollars,in just coins!!!!!
Sure ive seen this video before. Its amazing just how much you save without realising. Well done.
Dawn Bradley yes on the other channel like a year ago I think? It was live and really long! Steve wanted a short version out there because it was so exciting!
I want to know where those coins came from. Where did the coins come from, and how long did you collect them before cashing in?
who are you? the IRS? you don't need to know, mind you own business ! stop asking questions !
No, asshat. I was curious. My Grandfather left me several trashcans of coins when he passed. It reminded me (fondly) of it. Toss off.
I was wondering the same thing! Just generally curious.
I was curious too, and if they got it from some unique source it might have been worth a little time to grab a numismatics book look up the value of some coins.
My old next door neighbor when was a kid had inherited a vending machine company; pinball & arcade games, snack machines, (bad) coffee by the cup, etc. He started scanning the coins as he separated them, a habit his late father had never bothered with. He found an extra $10,000 per year on average for taking an extra half hour per day.
I received the coins in the '70's. Among them, near the bottom of one of the cans, was a $20.00 "Double Eagle" Gold Coin. Trust me, it went (and still remains) in a safety deposit box. :)
Damn I used to do that all the time save my change and take it to the coin machine to cash it in for money but they don't have machines like that anymore in my city that I know of you got to go to Banks now with coins rolled up or the teller in the bank gives you the paper rolls to roll your coins up in and then they gave you the cash after you do that,no more cashin your change in a coin machine,not in Philly.?
Who's already seen how much its gonna be but still watching the whole video lol
Yeah because some people spoil it and it's kinda annoying
10,000
The reason it doesn't except old pennys is because they can be worth money like one penny was sold for 250k
Eric the beast no it takes old pennies, but it was talking about 1943 pennies specifically, which were made from low-grade steel due to the copper shortage during World War 2. The pennies had the same design (known as the Lincoln-wheat by many people) that was in production since 1909 that were 95% copper before and after 1943. Then after 1982, I think, they were no longer copper, just copper coated.
@ericthebeast1277
Wrong on Two Accounts!
A: If that were the case they would return them to you!
B: They don't count The Steel one's Either, so wrong again!
wow i have to say for some reason i caught a button back ages ago when i wanted to watch a film on youtube and ended up with this video playing now i lovve your videos and love to keep turning my laptop on to watch and see more of your videos. i love ulta ones especially when you get a good haul of make up. x
Wow am gonna start saving too!!
Do you not have any IDEA of the MAYBE RARE coins that you just gave away?
David Upton they just wanted cash. Some people don’t want to sit and look through a shit ton of coins. Maybe if it was less, but that’s way too much to sift through.
@David Upton I check my coins every time I get any. I currently have two change purses in my purse. Spendable coins go into one and savable coins go into a smaller coin purse and eventually into my lock box.
WOW! That was awesome & a good chunk of money$!
Seven & Steph, you 2 are wise 🦉
Omg I love going to the coin machine and doing this I can't wait to see how much this comes to I hope you're at a free one
1943 Penny's are made of steel, there are however some that were made in copper and are Worth $$$$$$
Jamie Phillips I heard some say the copper 43s are worth a million
Yes, I've been looking for one since I read about it in highschool, no luck yet
1803
There's only a few over 10 known to exist.
Copper 1943 pennies can be worth.5 mill
My mom had a silver dollar that she had for years. She took it to a collector hoping it was worth something and she got over $1,500.00 for it!
Wooow! That’s fantastic! What a fun surprise that was! 💃🏼💃🏼
Did You Keep The Canadian Penny , It's A Collector's Item , Canada Stopped Using Pennies A Few Years Ago
Purple Pickles thanks for the info. I got 6 Canadian pennies. Where can I find out their worth?
@@sharoningerson6167 A penny unless you got some special year. though he is right we stopped producing them they aren't that rare.
@@sharoningerson6167 I'm canadian. .it's worth 6 cents...
Sharon Ingerson I just asked that question 🤣🤣
They are worth a grand total of: one penny lol. Despite being discontinued hundreds of millions still exist and even it if it is old (fourties) it’s not worth more than 3 cents likely.
Hmm? I find this interesting. I recently took a bag of change to my local supermarket in hopes of using their Coinstar machine. Unfortunately, I was greeted by a message on the machine's screen informing me that its kiosk was full and that I needed to find another Coinstar in my neighborhood. After watching your guys put a shopping cart's worth of change into the machine you used, I'm curious, I wonder how much change it takes to fill one of those things? And, congrats to you two. That's like finding a $2K dollar bill in a jacket you haven't worn since last winter! Party on!
15-20,000 coins depending on denomination/ coin.
When I was a waitress MANY years ago, I would come home and throw all of my change in a huge jars when we finally decided to take it to the bank it was over 5 thousand dollars that we used for a vacation. It was like we had free money.
We still do the same thing, but it is no where as much as we cashed in that day.
Just take them to the bank they change in for free.
At the end of World War II they only made a limited amount of penny’s as focus was put on ending the war and the people who made the coins did other jobs, Penny’s were barley produced in 1943 making them pretty rare I’m surprised the machine doesn’t snatch them up, that’s cool.
Also saw a comment saying they were made of a different material, this may be why that machine can’t accept them, but all in all they are rare keep your eyes out!
You would have been better in buckets, easier to take in and out of the trolley. I had to take $12,000 worth of mixed coins to the bank once, it was so heavy i couldnt believe it. And when the bank staff saw me coming in the door they all ran for cover. They took the coins and i had to go back 2 hours later.
$12,000 WOW that is awesome! I bet the bank employees ran nobody wanted that job 😂😂
Why not take it to the bank and cash it out. You lost alot of money the first round was almost 100 bucks, wow!
TIME TO STAND they did not cash it out so the machine did not take a percentage.
@@bowbrown95 oh ok
so how do they got the money?
They chose Amazon gift cards by email.
Yeah you could of went to first convenience bank and first national Bank they don't take nothing out it's free no fee
Lol, as a coin collector this is painful to watch. I would've loved to check all of these for old, damaged or collectables. N watching those dollar n fifty cent pieces being put in the machine absolutely killed me lmaooo.
I wish I had 26,000 coins to cash in.
@Heather Reese Ok
"I dont know what 1943 pennies are?" OK.
Wowie I never seen someone cash in this much change! Congratulations!
My Coinstar experience was rated at "F THAT!!!"... These Coinstar machines in my area are set anywhere from 12-17% service fee which means I can easily go to the hassle of rolling it myself and taking either to the nearest corner store or bank and save $12-17 on every $100 worth of change thank you!... Since most people do not count there change beforehand, they simply do not know what they are really getting charged for using this service... Try this sometime?... Count out about $50-60 worth of small change first and then feed it into the machine and see what comes out?...
Guess what ytrewq6789 😀 they don’t take a fee if you opt for the gift card payout option...just a fee if you want cash
@@StevenSteph Gift cards are not real cash period!. They have very limited spending power compared!. I think these machines are a rip-off and I still would recommend the corner store or bank instead!... But each to their own?.
ytrewq6789 we opted for amazon...we buy almost everything we use from them including groceries delivered. It was an excellent choice of us! Bought all of our kids and grandkids Christmas and birthday presents with it too! It was awesome! 🎉 would definitely do it again since our 3 banks won’t accept unrolled coins (Citibank, Wells Fargo and BofA in our town)
StevenSteph thanks for explaining, watch the return tray for pre 1964 silver though. Worth about 10x face at a coin store.
All that copper and silver you just dumped in there makes me wanna cry!!!!!
If that machine isn't paying out the correct amount. Its riged to do that becuse the older machines at the bank don't miss a coin, even more reason not to use them.
I just rolled all mine few weeks ago I had $1540 and thats not counting pennies they take for ever i have a big water jug full . I had 67 pounds of quarters .
USMC 1911 wow! Perfect! That’s awesome! Now what are you going to do with them? 😆
I want to put them back in my jugs but I still have them rolled probably save for vacation.
I love the coinstar, People always leave some cool stuff at my local one :)
hamOn Rye like what?!??
Oh like last week I got a 1936 silver quarter. The week before that a silver 1960 dime. I always get alot of Canadians or other foreign coins, Sometimes American coins as well...
Just a heads up those coin stars take a % if the money you deposit in those machines take em to your local banks you get the full amount there
There is no fee if you put it on a gift card.
OMG!! 11.9% went to Coinstar. That's $119 per $1,000
They opted to be paid with gift cards, so there was actually no fee.
Coinstar is apparently a real rip off I’ve heard!!! I would have used the coin counter at TD Bank. If I am not mistaken they have a couple in each branch and they are completely free. x
Did you see the fee on the screen it wanted to take for the $513 transaction? The fee was $61 if you got a cash voucher (~12%). Absolute robbery. Just go and tip it into coin machine at a bank and get a $0.00 fee. But i guess they shop a lot at Amazon and didn't need the cash, so was ok for them as it doesn't look like the Amazon vouchers have a fee.
@@brendanfarthing - The Counstar machines also have gift vouchers / cards for other retail stores and I think I even saw restaurants listed when Steph was performing a transaction.
I buy a shit ton from Amazon and Whole Foods. $2000.00 on a voucher / giftcard for my home or business usage wouldn't be a big deal. I would think buying some of the clearances or daily deals and looking hard enough there would be money to be made at their sales as well at Amazon still without just buying a liquidation box.
Amazing video and amazing channel and amazing job friends 😀😎🤩👍
I would take the wheat(pennies)
How long have you been saving all this change?
If you have a 1943 copper penny it's worth $10K+ because in 1943 pennies were made of steel.
Wow!
why does random junk keep popping up on my feed... and weren't these machines in a class action lawsuit for knowingly skimming a % off each transaction? Probably started with $2500 and walked away with a smooth 2k :P
Yes they most likely made around 2600$ so they lost 600$
If you choose gift certificates there is no fee. So therefore they got all their money.
If you go slowly they are really accurate. If you go fast, you might lose some money. We put two counted $100 lots through and lost less than a buck, but when we put $100 counted through fast, we lost just under $4! But it does tell you to slow down, so that is probably what keeps them from being sued. The class action lawsuit occurred when people got gift vouchers, such as the ones they got from Amazon and the printing was so unclear they were not able to redeem the certificate, not due to incorrect counting.
@sortathesame8701
Actually they tell you to slow down so the Machine won't jam!!they Jame all the time!
