- Let's take a look at the amazing technology of the Cummins Allision Jetsort coin sorter. This is an older 1994 model but they all work the same. The Jetsort is way faster than Coinstar!This company practically wiped out all other cash and coin counting companies with their superior tech.
Warning: I do not keep significant amounts of money around, I deposit it regularly. I am equipped with the right tools and will defend myself. Enjoy the video! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
NEWS ALERT: I sold my Vending machine business a few months ago so I no longer deal with large amounts of change or cash! Just incase you were feeling kind of Robbie.
If you don't mind me asking, what type of vending machines did you own?
I was wondering where you got so many coins, was worried you stole the contents of the jerry's kid jar from every convenience store in the state, and maybe a couple nearby states as well.
So how long did it take you to save up all those coins? I have gumball machine routes. I keep mine in M&M Jugs and try to never deposit more than 500 at a time.
Too bad. I’m sure they were a lot of work - but an all-cash business….
I tougth you had some money laundry thing going on
12:16 - "Alright guys that was easy-peasy." I hope you see the comedy in saying that while you're literally soaked and dripping with sweat.
I was thinking the exact same thing, haha.
I worked in the coin room for the M&T Bank back in the early 2000s. This machine was a lifesaver!! We did NY State Thruway toll deposits and they would send us bags of unsorted coins. This thing chewed through those bags like a beast. Much respect to the Jetsort!
That's cool, it was probably a similar vintage to this one, this one is from the early 90s I think.
@@HerbOMatic too bad the Corporation had to sell out to hide the corruption in the branches nationwide. No ? The DOJ has reports but lazily just filed them away. You tax dollars at work folks.
I’m a service tech for Cummins. I fix those machines for a living. Only one moving part. The sort head is the brains of the machine
😮 the weight of a 5 gallon container of coins 200 lb and I would say you got about $800 worth of coins in there and I would say you got 120 moving Parts in your coin machine
how does the machine work with foreign coins ?
How often does the sort head wear out?
@@bazingabert3346It rejects them, but quite sure there are machines made for specific country's coins.
Do they still say sign the pm tickets as coporate just wants the money ? Theft of Service !
Do you just start laughing uncontrollably when someone asks you if you have any spare change? Anyway this is a very cool machine, very clever design
Lol, I was carrying these bags into the bank a few years ago and a guy asked me where I got all of it and I said I was homeless. He said he was sorry to hear that and I asked if he had any spare change or could help me out. He checked his pockets and apologized and left. After he was gone the bank manager shook his head and called me an A-hole before processing my deposit.
@@HerbOMatic What an absolute legend

My father's uncle owned a load of cigarette machines in and around Manchester, England in the 1970's & 80's. On Fridays and Saturdays my father and I would go and refill the cigarettes, empty the money, and fix any issues. When we got back to Bert's house my job was to sort and bag the coins. He had at least four others who worked for him and each round was about a dozen pubs and clubs, so there was a lot of sorting to be done. Bert had made a manual version of this out of various bits and pieces. I remember the hopper was an old saucepan. Once sorted, Bert's wife counted the coins using an electronic counter. Amazing when I think back at the ingenuity of people back then. Great video!
Huh..in mid 70's US ( now 'Murica ) a pack o' 20 Winstons was maybe 50 cents & rising. JFC, I'm OLD:0 yet..
Can you recall your prices ; are Brit butts still called fags ( gasp !) & packaged differently? 10 packs to a carton here & cheaper/tax free on Indian reservations.
How much would they make per pack? Did they get bulk discount from the government for their stock?
@@bobbyhorsman9963 I was too young to know and my Mum doesn't remember. Tobacco wasn't regulated in the UK in the same way it is in the US so I'm sure he bought them from wholesalers. I do know that my Uncle was employed full time in the business so it made at least enough to support him.
There are much older versions of this, I mean back in the 80's as a kid I had a cheap 5$ coin sorter with little containers for quarters, nickles, dimes and pennies and you'd drop the coins in and they'd roll down a little zig-zag and drop down into the tubes which had lines and a cut out so it wouldn't over fill. Then you'd just slip a coin roll over it and boom, done!
Mind you this was just a kid's coin sorter, nothing high tech and old as dirt because my great grandfather gave it to me saying it was like the ones he saw in the banks growing up. (He passed away at 108 in 2006)
I wish my couch had $14K worth of change in it lol
Mine couch cost $3100 I hate it but it was the longest one they had 14 foot our living rooms is 32 feet so it looks little😢
Very cool. I was a manager for an arcade back in the early 90s. We had a pretty cool electronic coin counter. I want to say it was a Brandt. Would do single coin type at a time since we just counted quarters and tokens. It could be set to roll or bag coins at 20, 25, 40, 50 and 2000.
And now after 24+ years in IT, I am back doing game operations for the local barcade. For super cheap, I picked up an old Downey-Johnson coin counter. It works fine, despite being 40+ years old! A bit of cleaning and a new coin eject roller has it working perfectly. We just need to count quarters so it will do us just fine!
Brandt was honest I hear tell .Not like those Cummins Thieves. Free Speech !
I figured it was far more complicated on the inside! The simplicity of the machine is surprising!!
Dude you deserve more likes and views. Enjoyed your sense of humor. Thanks for making my day.
Thanks Buddy, the I have to work harder for the views and likes! Glad you had a laugh!
I found this machine in a bank in Cyprus and was spellbound 😂 so had to see how it worked. Thanks for the video! Subscribed!
Thanks for subbing! It's an interesting machine for sure!
I got so much tang with telling stories to the ladies thanks man!
The orange tang or the fishy tang?
This channel should be required viewing. For about a hundred good reasons.

Working up a real sweat there. Amazing that such a fast machine has such a small hopper for incoming coins.
This is absolutely fascinating!
Just stumbled across your page today and watching old vids. Was all this change from your vending machines? If so, how long did it take to accumulate that much? Awesome machine!
Your channel is way under watched. Keep up the good work 👍
Brian, that means a ton, I love making videos about machines, projects, and tools for everyone. Hit that sub button, it would help a ton, and I'll see you on the next one!
Best thing I have seen in long time.
The disadvantage of this style of machine is it cannot reject drachmas, francs, roubles, lira, euros, Fisher-Price 'My First Till' plastic coins, 2 pennies superglued together, or anything like that. Coinstars can. That makes it only suitable for professional use, where the operator can have a quick look at the buckets and quickly tell if he has been given a bucket of drachmas. Coinstars however can by used in public locations as they will actively reject drachmas and the likes.
You are forgetting it was the job of the vending machine to detect the coins, not the sorter.
@@Supremax67 thats why I said 'only suitable for professional use', ie after something detects the drachmas, pennies glued together, and the likes.
Publically accessible machines like coinstars do not have a vending machine in the loop before them to do this.
COIN STAR ROCKS !@@Debbiebabe69
Channel deserves more views. Love from NAirobi
Holy Smokes! I can't believe the logistics behind handling so many coins (a good problem to have, I guess). I didn't realize it was so labor intensive.
This video reminds me of the early 1970's when every Kmart had a Brandt sorter. They needed a lot of service due to their workout, not to mention the misc debris that included paperclips. They also had separate coin rolling machines so that the starting cash register "banks" had a uniform beginning fund for each cashier.
Currency was all counted by hand. There were no mechanical currency counters back then, at least in the stores.
Got here from Reddit. Definitely a great video and a great channel!
Damn, you can afford to run the A/C now. lol cool video.
Thanks for the great and entertaining video. Have you ever seen a machine that sorts coins but also can read the dates and mint identifiers in order to separate any valuable collectible coins?
Awesome. I still got my "sort-n-save"... lightyears slower! ;-) Thanks for sharing!
@HerbOMatic - Question. Did you ever have situations where a smaller coin such as a dime get slotted into a larger slot such as the one for the quarter? If so, how often does it happen? How does the machine prevent this from happening? I feel like if a dime spun into the mechanism past the dime slot and at the right place and time, that it would land into a larger one.
Enjoyed the vid and the sense of humor was a plus! where could I get one of those coin sorters
I guessed 170 to 175 pounds.
Went a bit over.
Love your video.
Thanks Bigblast!
thanks for the demo. subbed and liked
that was awesome!!
I have been saving coins for over 25 years. I started with a 5 gallon water bottle, the type that when you order water they bring it in and turn it upside down and after that was filled I started on a 2 1/2 gallon water bottle of the same type. The big bottle weighs 175 pounds and the small bottle, which I emptied, had about 60 pounds in it. The banks used to take coins in bags, but now everything has to be rolled. I can't see buying an expensive machine that I'm only going to use once. Wish me luch!
Hey buddy i am in same boat....24 years save coins...just yesterday i am do some research on line and prices go to $ 100 electronic to $ 25 nanual in that range...after all this years i am think in invest in that....
What path do "slugs" or other junk take? I know with the machines in supermarkets, there's a separate chute where rejected coin get spit-out.
Clever man who designed that machine.
Pure genius really.
"Its here to kick ass and sort coins and its all out of ass" lol a play on the line from "They Live" but also used in Duke Nukem catchphrase, "I'm here to kick ass and chew bubble gum, and I'm all outta gum"
Cool video, thanks for showing us this! I wonder if that wheel system is the same sort of thing that the Coinstar uses, except that the Coinstar also knows how to sort slugs to the return bin.
Coinstar uses a different system. Theirs is much much slower but has the ability to kick out slugs or washers or foreign coins that can jam this machine up.
@@HerbOMatic: Oh, I see; that's interesting. I'd like to see the internal workings of that one too. Thanks for your comment love and your reply.
Is there a "reject" bag for damaged or foreign coins?
No, they will not pass through the channel under the sort head, you can tell by the the rubbing noise. You have to stop the machine and with one latch open the hinged sort head and remove the bent or foreign coin.
What's to prevent for example the first slot a dime runs across being the quarter slot? The dime would fit.
Becuase of the shapeof the head to the rotating tray, the coins are only allowed to enter the the outside or sorting ring at a certain point. Once they enter at the known and controlled point, they are then sorted with the smallest being removed first. They cannot enter the sorting ring from any point around the circle, one the one point that is designed to allow coins in.
I would have thought this machine had inductive sensors like the old JCM high-speed coin counter I once had. I guess JCM still had a valid patent on that technology.
Awesome vid, keep ‘em coming! Liked & Sub’d. 👍🏼
Thanks!
That’s a very cool machine.
Thanks Austin, it saves a ton of time!
@@HerbOMatic How much did it cost?
You could still deposit the money in your bank or does the bank requires you to roll up all the coins which they still have to break anyways and count to verify just wondering
If the branch doesn't have a coin counter, they most likely put in it a bag like in the video and send it to the local "Vault" to be counted and deposited into your account. Takes mine about 4 days to show up in my account.
Cool machine.
Now I want one. Have no use for it, but I want it.
SAME!!!!!!!
How is this Cummins related to the engine and generator manufacturers with the different logo (diesel engine that was in my Dodge Ram pickup truck)?
wouldn't the count be off by two quarters because the new bag has two quarters in it that didn't pass through the machine? or is it designed for you to bypass the counter with the overflow?
Man, that is a lot of beer money. Now, I like to see you drinking all that beer in one setting.
I need this machine!!! Where did u get it at?🤷🏻♀️
I’m looking for a coin and bills counter and not sure which one to get cuz there’s soooo MANY! UGH! 😩😫 any suggestions??🤷🏻♀️
What keeps the dimes from going in the slot for larger coins etc...?
I guessed 15k ! Nice vid
My first thought at the way he posed the question "how many *moving* parts" my knee jerk thought was 'It must be something silly like 1 for him to be asking the question that way.' Then as he fed the machine coins and I heard it operating and saw how fast it was sorting I then thought 'the one moving part must be rotating/or spinning.. I bet it's cone shaped based on the vertical height it can't have room for a drum shaped sorting mechanism.'
The he opened the machine and I audibly chuckled.
I got 2 and a half right it seems. 😂
Wow so much change
It looks warm where you live😮
I imagine a conversation between him and someone who doesn’t know the fully story would be like:
“I heard you have a job in the Metal industry.”
“Metal Indus-Yeah, and a lot of money is involved.” [The buckets of money]
“So you work with heavy metals?”
“Yeah, you could say that.” [Heavy buckets of coins!]
“I work with a lot of metal all day. Thousands of dollars worth gets moved around. (Laughs)”
“Wow, moving all that Metal all day must be why you’re so strong, eh?”
“😎”
Hahaha had to write a second comment. This dude is a character. Stops to let us know he has "a dozen thousand dollars". That's a first for me.
I love this but.... why do you have that much money in change?
I've got a small change jar but I think I'd notice if it was that much
Is that the same Cummins like the diesel motor manufacturer?
What's all those metal bits in the top right pieces of the coins?
Dang casino was real mad you hit the jackpot on the slots huh, they said naw, we not cashing all them coins😂
Words cannot express how much I want one of these things even though I have zero use for it.
Wow a lot of coins.
Looks like youse worked up yet another POWerful thirst..w/a few bonus George$. Glad I wasn't around to help move that freakin' couch but great video.
I've got a McGill belt changer gatherin' dust; used it on paper route mid 70's. Remember gas station pump guys having 'em; somehow Ma found it for Xmas..
Do you sweat in a airconditioned room too? I havnt met many people in the same boat as me.(not that ive met you) When at work and meeting someone new they think something is wrong with me i sweat so much. Thanks for the video I too wouldnt have guessed the moving parts or lack there of.
I start sweating in May and stop at the end of October! Woman knows I'm a walking swamp. I thought it would have had dozens of moving parts! Thanks BigBaby!
Make a polycarb cover for that coin sorting guide. Thatd be cool to see haha
Wait, Cummins-Allison? As in the same ones that make engines and transmissions?
How did you get it all to the bank once you sorted it?
I hope you upgraded your ac with this money, there’s no need to start dripping sweat in your house after 1 bucket
I have that shirt and that scale.. crazy..
Hi, I don't understand why the coin doesn't fly outward due to the centrifugal force. The lid with the track has no frame to prevent this. How is the coin guided? From approx. 9.46, the coin should be pushed outwards. Can you explain this in more detail? Thanks!
Other than the milled slots in the top plate, the distance between the plate and the rotating wheel is smaller than the thickness of the coins. (It’s likely almost touching.) The coins can’t exit anywhere except the milled slots.
So which kind of dollar gets counted with those? Eisenhower, Susan B.Anthony, or the Sacagawea/Presidential coins?
And interesting all it's going on is size. So conceivably if you'd had a bucket of Canadian coins it would have likely not cared?
That was one heavy couch
Herb, you must be a vendor machine guy
Liked the reference to Roddy Piper's movie "They Live"
I got stuck behind a guy at a bank of oklahoma once who ran a vending machine business and he had $10k in coins. It kinda blew my mind.
Well, look at you, mister moneybags!
Can you do a similar vid on the paper money counter?
Looks like you need a beer, thats alot of work!
Sweat! You could start your own Coin Star business. Charge people 10 percent to sort their change. How long did it take to save that change? 6 months?
Thanks! That's even more 🍺 money 10x faster than a Coinstar too!
That was in the couch from all the Netflix binging during the pandemic.
@@HerbOMatic Five buckets 🪣 of change in the couch? lol 😂 Your couch cushions are worth more than a lot of cars on the road. Nice video BOSS.
Will the bank take the bags like that or do they need to count them?
Hey Brian, they do take them like this. They charge a fee of $10 per bag. They don't count them on the spot, perhaps they weigh them and the $10 fee covers any discrepancies. I have never heard from them about it over 10 years.
@@HerbOMatic hey Herb, what route do you take to your bank? Because I want to follow your route and scoop up all of the loose & lost change due to busted plastic bags! I need to buy a big scoop shovel... Haha
By the way - how much are those bags?
@@jptucsonaz8503 Change is $50 pennies, $200 Nickels, $1000 Dimes, $1000 Quarters, $2000 Dollar Coins. I sold my Vending machine business a few months ago so I no longer deal with large amounts of change or cash! Just incase you were feeling kind of Robbie.
@@HerbOMatic Ooops, my bad... I meant how much do the new empty bags cost you?
I just noticed the RC planes! Nice! I have a Radian foamy that is a lot of fun to fly but can’t find a decent place to fly it In so cal.
I used to work on these in the casinos, when the head is out of adjustment, you should see the money fly
what bank takes bagged coins instead of rolled?
Using the weight and assuming there's a near even distribution of pennies, quarters, dimes and nickels, I'd assume each bucket comes out to around 3000, give or take a hundred.
I just watched a 12 minute, almost 3 year old video on March 7th , 2024 at 13:45 EST of Herb-O-Matic counting coins. My life is oddly complete and unfulfilled at the same time.
Ditto for me at 19:00 GMT
☑️👍 Tks for that, If I haven't seen a video ignore this question but whats up with the airplane wings? You an RC guy?
👍✅🤣 Guess it only took a year but you answered my question with a series of videos. Sorry for making you go to so much work just for me LOL
By putting the two coins in the bag, are they not counted now? So you’re gonna have two extra.
hello I have the same machine and the red light flashing do you know where I can get the opperating manual or service manual for this machine thanks
shoot me an email to the address on the channel home page I'll send you copy of the service manual
Where do you get all those coins?
Holy crap how much did that coin sorter cost you?
Just Google it baby...!!!😊
enough coins for a FinCEN report. well done.
I filled a very old 5 gallon Sparkletts bottle with change from the late 90s into the 2000s. When it would hold no more I attempted to empty it, but when I tried to move it it shattered - and I learned quickly why Sparkletts must’ve moved away from glass bottles…
When I was done sorting the glass from the change, I handed off all the coins to my banker buddy, who returned to me $2,100.97!
Long story short I’m gonna guess somewhere between $9,000 and $10,000.
Edit: you obviously had way more quarters in the mix than I did :)
Grandad kids are going to love having you as their grandpa.
You lost a penny off to the right in that internal channel @ ~11:32 you dig that out? You own vending machines or slot/arcade machines?
Wow 😊
If my couch had that kind of coin, I'd invest in an air conditioner.....LOL! Very satifying to watch.
Or a new shirt.
So what would happen if you had foreign coins in the mix?
How would this machine handle foreign coins? Seeing how you can often find Canadian coins in US circulation.
how would it cope with a foreign coin that got in by mistake?
How did you accumulate all that?
Now he can finally buy a WINDOW AC unit! 😮💨
Yeah, maybe I don’t want to own a laundromat anymore 😮
