I painted sooony quarters red when I was an employee of an apartment complex We used these to do laundry We got our coins back once a week Whenever I see a red quarter, I always wonder if I painted it, lol 😅🫶🏼

The RV industry also must have gotten the idea from the juke box companies Many RV park owners pay for their workers laundry, and paint coins to know the coins were “house” coins

Comment from : @hurrjackal118

I still still sometimes get one of these when I get rolls of quarters at the bank that I use at the laundromat I was always a bit curious why I'd occasionally see a red one in the roll

When I was a kid the local pool would paint quarters and throw them in the deep end It was a fun way to end the swimming lesson by proving you could dive to the bottom! You got to keep all the quarters you could pick up

Comment from : @iznasen

I just remember the old sit-down Pizza Hut (long gone now) that had the jukebox and the greasy table with big leather bound cushy bench seats! Dim, tan lighting hung throughout
Comment from : @rackets001

Worked at an arcade in the earlo 00s We referred to these as redemption, instead of house They were used to test a machine or refund a customers game Each employee had their own colorbrbrBonus No Country for Old Men has a very brief scene with a redemption coin that has significance to the type of character who carries it
Comment from : @H8erfisternator

i wonder how much malicious compliance there was as a local i would like to think i would have painted the coins red and put those in to help the establishment the music industry was and still does screw too many artists
Comment from : @Andre-qo5ek

Ngl, Harry kinda looks like Robin Williams
Comment from : @cryogami

Arcades sometimes used them also for if a customer lost a coin in a machine That way they would know that was not to be counted in the amount brought in
Comment from : @michaelmartin4552

That’s actually very interesting as I would occasionally find a quarter with some paint on it (not sure if it was always red), and I would always wonder what the reason was
Comment from : @XFS540

So cool, I have seen this, but I i never knew that
Comment from : @MP-ym8lg

They used to give red quarters to newcomers in AA so they knew not to spend it on anything but a phone call(pay phones)if they felt like taking a drink

I thought they kept the girls bedrooms locked so at the end of this video about the book, how did CeCe come out of bedroom and Bella too come out of the bedroom if the girls doors were locked with a key? Lies, Chris lies so much
