I would open the tins and manually count the coins into their respective bags and take the counted bags to the bank.

More accurate.

For example, I collected $1,000 x 50c and $500 x $1 coins on Friday and ended up $8.65 excess.   The most I have had as excess is $28.  

Count the coins yourself PLEASE.
Yep I do that.

How do you get 65 cents excess from 50 cent and dollar bags unless somebody has mixed denominations?

50c coins are rather large and have a decent depth of rim.   Smaller coins of all denominations get hooked up or caught because of this rim.

Don't forget, all denominations are poured into the machine at the same time and moved by a small conveyor belt into the depth of the machine.

The machine then sorts the coins, counts them and drop them into each of the denominated bag.

Once done, you press a button and get a receipt for the coins that have been counted.

I have received all denominations in 50c/20c/$1 bags over the 20 months that I have been searching for Mules/upsets/rotations etc and yo date have received well in excess of $500.00 extra.

Here is a photo of one such extra lot:
