Helped a friend over the weekend who was injured and couldn’t operate a lock. He had to drive around and service a bunch of vending machines, including opening the money box and taking out all the coins. That’s hard to do with two broken fingers in a cast.

We dumped all the coins from the money boxes into small plastic tubs. Good grief – those tubs get heavy really fast. Then we sorted the coins in a mechanical coin sorter which counted the money as it ran through and put each type of coin into its own tube to be rolled in paper.

Interesting to me that there were a lot of foreign coins mixed in with the U.S. coins. We are not that international around here, so I was very surprised to see how many coins were from other countries.
