Does the quarter wrapper have to be the preformed wrappers or can you use the flat coin wrappers?

No it doesn't have to preformed, but they does work better than the flat coin wrappers. I suggest letting the machine doing the count then empty the coin tubes into the wrappers
1682148
I only have the preformed wrappers.I want to add that the machine jams all of the time.Amazon won't take it back and the company has yet to answer me.

It is best to use the preformed wrappers. the length has to fit in the tube. But, you do not have to load the tubes with wrappers at all. You can slip the flat wrapper into the tube and over the coins and slip the coins into the wrapper.

I think only preformed unless you can get the flat ones perfectly round to where the coins fall perfectly in the wrapper so they don't jam the machine

you can use the flat wrapper only if you dump the filled slots into a seperate quarterslot that the flat coin wrappers fits into.

Yes, you can use paper coin wrappers. You will have to make sure the bottom of the wrapper is formed so it will properly fit in the holder. The machine will keep a count of the number of coins and once a domination has reached it's limit for a complete roll the machine will stop sorting.

I have one of these, and any preformed coin tubes work. This is a good product

The term "coin-tainer" is not familiar. If it consists of a preformed tube with a rolled under edge at one end it will probably work just fine. These things are ubiquitous. Staples or WalMart has all sorts of such things.

Yes you do have to wrap them youself. But this machine has cut 2 hours of manually sorting and counting coins down to about half an hour. Very useful and helpful.

No wrappers came with this coin sorter. You can find a big bag of coin wrappers at the dollar store. The bag has all coin sizes in it. These wrappers work great. You don't have to pay for brand name wrappers any kind works.

JDI is correct about the wrappers. I have found though that I like to double check the count of the coins. There are some infrequent sorting errors.

You can buy special coin wrappers that are designed to be placed in the hoppers for the coins to fall into. Don't try to do that with the old style wrappers, it just doesn't work. Charlie. . . . . .

No, it is preset for single quarter transactions only unless they forgot to tell me how to make it more, but, as far as I know, I don't think the 50-cent capsules will be able to come down the shoot like candy and nuts can. I have a large variety of treats that go in there, but I have not tried anything bigger than peanuts, M&Ms;, chocolate mints, etc. Meanwhile, the single quarter transactions add up and are just as fun to collect on as I'm sure 50-cent transactions are. It won't hurt to try though. If they don't come down the shoot, then they are too big. As the saying goes, if you don't shoot, you don't score, so it would be worth giving it a shot.

Sorry this machine can only be set to any coin or no coin. I would suggest finding or making a 25c sticker so no one would think twice.

There was a small pack of 2 or 3 wrappers for each size coin. Standard (buy a bag at Walmart or Dollar Tree) wrappers work just great. Commenting on the previous answer ~ the only jams I've had were bent coins, a half dollar, and a button that got in accidentally.

The coin wrappers go inside plastic tubes. The coins have to be exactly level with the top of the plastic tube. There are also markings on the ends of each paper wrapper to show the correct amount. I visually inspected and counted a couple of rolls and they were exact. You can also watch the coins drop. If a dime is falling in the penny slot, for instance, you can see it and stop. I had almost no problems counting over $300 in coins. Hope that helps.

The diameter of theses coins are the same size of a quarter. They are very lightweight. I hope I answered your question.

You need to pull on tabs. Little oval tabs. It is hard we would get on tab pulled away and would put a coin in the space then move to other tabs. Tabs stay attached to one side.

I think most coins are about the same thickness so I'll use coins as a gauge.It's a little thicker than a quarter... about the same thickness as a nickel.The pan feels very rigid. My pan has often been used on the stovetop with fairly high heat and it has not warped.

This one does NOT count or sort 50 cent pieces. I'm not sure of any others, since I so rarely deal with those coins. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful!

Open the paper wrapper and "slide" into the plastic tube around the coins. With your finger in the other side of the wrapper, turn the tube upside down. You must shake it a little. It gets easier with practice.
