No, I just count them right there on the CoinStar machine with my portable Coin Sorter (that I keep in my car).

The CoinStar machines only accept coins at a certain rate (which is not too much faster than my little hand-cranked sorter!), and a number of people load the coins into the CoinStar too fast and jam the machine. I've bought several jars' worth simply because the users jammed the machine (in these cases I saved them time and gas money, not just the vig!).


Recently, a CoinStar repairman even gave me a 1987 Canadian $1 'Loonie' coin that got stuck in the works. He said that various non-U.S. coins can really do a number on his machines...
Rest in Peace
