Okay, I get that foreign coins, dimes, etc end up in a penny bag because they are similar in size and weight. But how the heck does a Quarter get in a penny bag? I found one today, that's a lot of chutes to jump to end up in a penny bag. It's as strange as the elongated cent I found in a penny bag. How many others have had a quarter in a penny bag?

Sounds like a new club. What is the highest amount of non pennies that anyone has found in a bag? I found .35 the other day.

Two weeks in a row I found a smashed penny in a bag of cents. Those are longer than a quarter.

Maybe the quarter was just left over in the bag from the last filling.

You never know what you'll find in a bag.
I have found quarters more than once. I have seen tellers pick up loose change inside the machine while changing bags and just toss it in any bag that's convenient.

In one bag I found $0.95 cents in quarters(3) and dimes(2). I found that odd. There are a lot of odd things in bags of pennies....

Live free or die.
Plain and simple.

"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your council or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."

I found a quarter which had been chewed up some about two months ago. I find a dime about every other bag.
