No way, they have awesome fast coin counting machines at banks. You dump it in and it counts in real-time, like 15 seconds and you're done.

My local Chase branch does free coin counting as well as other banks that are actually all Chase banks now.

It never made sense to me that a bank would want you to bring in rolled coins. How could they trust the contents?

They must weigh them or something. When I rolled my own change once I was short 1 cent in a dollar penny roll and they sent me snail mail about it.

Wells Fargo has done this for me, at least three different locations.

My back definitely doesn't do this, I wish it did. Consider yourself lucky!
