Not sure about one bin for clad and one for pennies.
I took about $300 face in pennies along with another $50 in metal detecting clad (yes I cleaned the dirt off) finds. About 3/4 through the machine stops dead like something happened. I thought some of my MD finds jammed it up. But I would say the machine was switching bins or buckets or whatever you guys call it. Because after it started back up you could hear the coins dropping into an empty container. The sound was as different as night and day!
I'm pretty sure it all goes together, pennies and clad!
My opinion, though.
I've been wrong before.........once!
