I do it a bit differently. I start at $2 and work my way down, because that way I can put the most value back into circulation. Of course that means I run out of steam long before I get down to 5¢, so now I need a forklift to shift them. Imagine all the undiscovered goodies in that mountain though... :)

And yes, organisation is the killer. I've tried a few ideas, but ended up with milk crates full of sacks of bags jam packed full of a given variety. Not ideal, but it would cost an absolute fortune to wrap these things in any kind of individual packaging. :(

I just dug out a bag of coins my ex's father threw my way (he still gives me all his change rather than bank it). It had been lying around for a couple of years, and of course, it was PVC.

Here's what I just posted about it, with pic: http://goo.gl/uiCu3

PVC is really really nasty stuff, so much so it even eats coin bags!

On the other hand, he also had a couple of glass jars full of coins, and they were still in absolute pristine condition. Hmm... Glass Coin Albums, anyone? ;)

I'm really hating this job, sorting that PVC bag full of coins. Thousands and thousands of the little buggers, all affected in some way.

I need a stack of Toxic Waste Stickers to put on the rejects before I take them to the bank I think. ;)
