I imagine that the Westpac machine would honour your card for a small  fee :laugh2:

I used to use those paper rolls when I worked I pubs, shops etc when I was younger
I thought the banks actually had rolling machines but it might have been the mint?

Hello,

Before the Coin bags you could get a pad of paper slips for rolling your Coins. Some people were not good at it, and other tried to include washers. Part of the reason we now have plastic bags. The staff would know who was dodgy and check then re-roll the Coins.

Its a real knack to make one of those hand rolls neat, straight and tight. I am hopeless at it.
I picked up many pads of the papers from the bank a few years ago and have used them for rolling up coins to put away. I get my wife to do it -when she left school she got a job in a bank and rolling up coins was a daily chore.
The secret is to leave a big overlap when you roll them back to get started and don't try to leave a small tuck under when you then go forward. If you have never tried it then that probably won't make any sense at all. :s
Rolling Coins With Just a Sheet of Paper This fellow has no overlap in the roll and that is hard to do neatly and get them tight.

All the bank branches did have several rolling machines once. They were called "tellers".

Yeah,i was hopeless at it,when i first joined the ANZ Bank i was sent to a City Branch for a year to have a look how general Banking worked before being transferred to the Data Processing Centre.1 day a Week all new junior staff were sent to a training centre and part of that was how to roll coin,hated it along with batching,counting/storing coin/notes etc.
Stating the obvious but i wouldn't trust any rolled Coin on Ebay,to easy to manipulate,2nd hand coin rolling machines are cheap as chips these days,there were heaps for sale in the 1970/80's as Dept. stores & Co's downsized or closed.

You don't actually need a machine to get a passable tight roll.

I made my own printed wrappers for the Federation state coins, using an Armaguard wrapper as a template. The trick is having the right tool to fold the ends over... something like a butter knife will work.

They won't pass for machine rolls, since you can't avoid a series of creases, but they're quite serviceable.

Of course nowadays I seal them in plastic with a label insert. Much easier.

Total disgrace people who roll coins and attempt to sell on as security rolls.
Resale is only reason for these grubs to roll coins for profit

[Mister T]

Anyway, I'm guessing bank branches no longer roll coins themselves these days?
