FWIW, someone mentioned Coinstar charging 10%, it's actually currently 11.9% for using their machines.
A consumer service actually counted their money before they put it through the coin counting machine. It not only charged the listed 12% service charge, it shorted the count of their money another 20%.

"We have a big jug that has a built in counter on it; our entire family has been collecting it," Ventrella said.
And they say they saved up enough change, $248 by their counting, they hoped to use for souvenirs.
But when they dumped that jug into the Penny Arcade at TD Bank in Royersford, they got $204.
A $44 difference.

Coin counting machines apparently cannot be trusted to give you an accurate total of your change.........................
