#22 Dime wheel

Postby cuppoor » Sun Nov 11, 2012 9:10 am

How many of you guys use the Ryedale for dime sorting? I recently picked up the #22 wheel from Andy and wish I would have done it much sooner. $1K run yielded me 9 pre-'65s. Unfortunately my dump bank's coin counter counted 500ish of those as pennies and now I have to deal with that. It really blows the profit margin when that happens.

Next time pay attention to the dollar led while you're dumping. If you see it counting as pennies stop and go somewhere else. Normally when the machine is serviced it should fix it.

This is why I stopped dumping dimes in the coin counters years ago. I lost over $12 in a $1000 dump. I had just started, when I saw the counter itemizing frickin' pennies. Luckily I was able to stop the machine and demanded the manager let me retrieve the dimes still in the machine that hadn't been counted yet. At the dime to penny ratio it was going at, I have no doubt I would have lost hundreds of dollars.

When things go bad with a dime dump, they tend to go REALLY bad really fast.
