Good coin counting machine

thelasthurrah

I have a lot of 90% & 40% coins that I just don't have time to count.

Who on the forum here uses a coin counting machine?

I'm in the $300-$1000 range on it.

You must have tons of 90% if you want to spend $300-$1000 on a machine to count it all!!!!

I'd be counting it by hand for free and using that $300-$1000 to buy more silver!!!!

Yeah, I know I haven't been much help.

I've seen nice like new Brandt's to be had for $300 to $500, they are big and reliable. I know where one is for sale in Dallas for $400 or so. I thought about buying it myself and may, although I don't keep that much 90%

Just go to the TDBank nearest you, dump in all your coins & have them counted, and then call over the nearest employee & tell them you've changed your mind & want your coins back - - and you know how many of each you should have (itemized receipt)...........

Cost: $0

Seeing their Reaction: Priceless!

Check out the Cassida c-100 coin counter. It runs about $200.00, I have had one for about two years and it works great for my use.

True story - about 25 years ago I was sales rep for an office equipment dealer, and received a lead for an addressing machine - it was from the Hare Krishna group...These are the people who are sometimes seen in airports and other places chanting, asking for your pocket change. I took the addressing machine for a demo to their house, a fairly large old house in Philly, looked as though it hadn't been painted in 50 years, and there was no furnuture in the house, as I think they take vows of not owning any worldly possessions or something like that, I did the demo sitting on the floor, he wanted the machine to keep in contact with his members, he liked the machine, and cut me a check. I told him we'd have to wait for the check to clear and then I'd come back with a new machine in a box, install it, and instruct him in the use.

Long story short...I get there and he takes me into a room in the house, again with no furniture, nothing...EXCEPT for the largest coin counting machine I have ever seen before or since...larger than anything I've seen even at any bank. LOL

I understand your frustration, I'm in the same boat. I need a rolling machine, too, and a good place to buy some wrappers. Oh, and boxes, too, I have to store these in something. Oh, and a huge safe deposit box at a bank, or a private vault. I figure 1500 SF should do me. I'd like to keep the costs for this under $75,000, too, if I can help it. After all, I don't want to get too crazy. Thanks!

I don't remember where I got it, but I have had a SEMACON hand-cranked model for years. It was under $300. I don't remember where I bought it but it has cranked out tens of thousands of coins with no problems. I prefer the hand-crank to electric models as they jam less frequently. With electric models, they will just jam-up (especially with dimes). When you crank by hand, you develop a touch that allows you to reverse the machine to avoid jams. Early on, I jammed now and then. Then got the hang of it. Now, it virtually never jams. I would buy another one.

Here ya go........250.00

I got lucky about (5) years ago and found one of these used/reconditioned Glory WR-400 on ebay with a $1000.00 BIN, it does 40 rolls per minute( new they are 19K) We have rolled between 500-750K in coins with little to no problems

(a couple of belts replaced)

The company I bought from is in Tampa (40 miles from me) they handle parts also HERE
