Review on Cassida C200 Coin Sorter, Counter And Roller - Money Counting Machine by Nick Tucker

This coin counter is awesome. It blasts through sorting coins perfectly. I had numerous jars of coins saved up for 15 or so years. I had mixed in Euro coins and other non-us coins as well. I needed to sort through everything then roll and take to the bank. One of the things that really sets this unit apart is the drop in coin trays. The machine blasts through sorting and dropping the right coin in the right bucket. It is very easy to visually inspect to confirm sorting is accurate and let me pull non-us coins out of the mix. I then rolled them coin type at a time (e.g. Quarters first, then dimes, etc). It was a lot more efficient rolling the same type of coin vs trying to have the machine sort through different ones and dropping them into the sleeves. I think this may be why people have issues. If they have anything mixed in with their coins it can screw up counting and sorting.Presorting takes the guesswork out. Sort everything into types, visually look at the coins to make sure all sorted ok, then blast away rolling one coin type at a time. When following this procedure the machine ran perfectly. It counted 100% accurately and made it very easy to pull out full sleeves and reload. The machine is super fast when counting the same coin type. By the time I folded the top of the coin sleeve the next one was full. It isn't the fastest machine in the world, but it much faster and more accurate than I could ever be.I also found that the counter was exactly right. I'm not sure why people are having problems with it. My guess is their machines may be dirty or they have non-standard coins. I tried to keep my machine clean as I ran through buckets of coins. I'd wipe it down between each batch. I had zero issues.Another thing that is very important is to use good quality coin sleeves that are preformed round. Do not use the flat coin wrappers. They will cause the machine to jam. I believe a lot of people are having problems because they are not using the right sleeves. Buy ones that are designed for automatic machines and read the reviews. The good coin sleeves that work well in automatic machines have good reviews and people comment on how well they work in coin counters. I used Royal Sovereign Coin Wrappers. They were perfect. They are boxed well and hold their shape. Drop them into the tube and in 15-20 seconds the wrapper is full. Occasionally the first coin may be slightly slanted (not flat on the bottom), but the length of the Royal Sovereign wrappers is long enough to hold the full coin count even if they are somewhat out of alignment. Pull it out, tap the bottom a bit and they fall perfectly straight. Fold the top over and repeat.Outside of having the bank do this for you, this is the best system I have found to efficiently and accurately wrap coins. It is much better than the automatic machines at grocery stores. Not only do they keep a percentage of the money, I would not be surprised if they miscount in their favor. You can't see what is going on inside of the machine. Wrap your own coins. It is as easy as pie with the Cassida C200.
