    the banks would then charge the toll fellas more to handle the coins at their branches

    And people would spend longer stopped at the tolls.

    if they accepted 1s and 2s, it would be a great way to get rid of them. Throw them en masse in to the bucket and let the machine work out what is in there. Although if the machine does not give change then it might slow things up because when your coins reach €1.14 and you need to work out how to pay the balance.

    OP, bring them to a Tesco where the sacat has a little funnel to take the coins instead of a slot.
    QFT! Those Tesco self-service machines - used in the quieter hours - is a great way to use the copper coins.
