There is a magnet inside the tray where you pour your coins, and I always check it to see what people have left behind. Of course, it only grabs magnetic coins, like Canadian coins, lots of foreign coins, steel cents, gaming tokens, etc. I managed to grab: $3.25 Canadian quarters $1.00 Canadian dimes $1 Loonie $.20 Canadian nickels a few canadian pennies 1967 25 centavos Peru an old Chinese coin I need you guys to identify a history channel club token 2008 1 Jamaican dollar and in the reject tube coins often don't come out all the way, so my brother nabbed $1.25 US and I got a bunch of beat up quarters and dimes and pennies. Jackpot baby! I've found a lot of stuff there before but never this much at once. Check those magnets! The tellers there said one guy found a Three Cent piece wedged between some magnetic coins!

XavierOfGreen Pillar of the Community United States 2589 Posts	Posted 07/04/2013 10:19 am Nice stuff! Theres also a larger interior magnet on the collection basin that catches whatever magnetic stuff the magnet in the tray does not get. I too regularly check the magnets on machines. I've found about three rolls of steel cents over the years from plucking them off those magnets, as well as some counterfeit quarters and dimes Report this Post to the Staff
rachums107 Pillar of the Community United States 3345 Posts	Posted 07/04/2013 10:28 am XoG- I have found a few steel cents, no counterfiets though. Where is this fabled "interior magnet" you speak of? Am I allowed access to it? Report this Post to the Staff

The references say this coin should be solid brass, not plated steel. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
rachums107 Pillar of the Community United States 3345 Posts	Posted 07/07/2013 11:44 pm Sap- I think that one came from the reject shoot, not the magnet necessarily. Got change from both of them mixed. And I just checked, it does not stick to a magnet. Good call Report this Post to the Staff
