my bank has their counting machine in the back so you have to give them your jug (or whatever) and they take it back there and then give you cash, they do give you everything that was rejected though but this type of thing doesn't happen there

I tried to take a picture but my camera apparently doesn't focus or do very good close ups. The pictures come out blurry if I try to take a picture of something up close. I'm using a FinePix A350 in case anybody knows how to work those.

You can use a scanner for taking coin photos. I have a webcam where you can turn the lens for fine adjustments. A lot of people buy macro photography equipment which can be pretty expensive. I know I can't afford it.

A loupe in front of the lens sometimes works.

Nice find! You can find almost anything in the coin rejects so long as its half dollar sized or smaller (anything bigger gets caught in the collection basin). Silver, old foreign coins, Three Cent pieces and even large cents pop up occasionally. Keep searching, your sure to find more!

I looked up your camera, on the back use the macro button (click to see where the macro button is). When in macro mode it will focus on items that are as close as 6 cm away.

A brief update: I cannot seem to find this coin. I tried looking in my car but I didn't find it there. I'll keep looking. The one that I have is very smooth and appears to have been cleaned. In this condition, how much do these coins cost?
Rest in Peace

G4 is about $16, and F12 is about $25.

Sorry your coin has gone missing. Maybe you put it away in a nice safe spot and forgot...? Meanwhile, check all your pockets. Good luck.

No I didn't put it in any safe spots; I'll check in my clothes pockets later. I didn't think of that.
