As long as it’s somewhat recognizable as a coin, isn’t the bank obligated to replace it? Or just roll it up in a coin roll and cash it in that way.
Contrary to popular belief banks are not Required to accept any coins or paper money they do not wish to accept.
Zinc pennies that will not clean up enough to go thru a coin counter are only good for throwing in the trash.
I haven't checked lately but at one time I checked and the U S Mint would not accept them.
i do not think credit union take rolls of penny or not ? its my job to keep cleaning up change and put it back in the system ,,

Sure but scrapyards have been closed.
What is your state, Rebels?not here
The crappy ones go straight into the trash. I tried a while back to send some acceptable ones through my tumbler and cash em in. It was a big jar full of mixed change.The coins were just fine, but the bank refused to take them until I threatened to close my account and go somewhere else that would be happy to take my money. They eventually caved in and ran them through the sorter. Haven't tried bringing my change to a bank since. I'll bet I have five hundred bucks worth built up in jars laying around the house.
