We wrapped the whole jar in duct tape to contain the mess if it broke, then wrapped it in a moving blanket and loaded it on a handtruck. In the garage, we lay the bottle on its side, lifted the bottom with a block underneath, and tilted to slide the coins out. I wrapped a screwdriver in duct tape and used it to plunge the bottleneck when it got clogged. Took about 15 minutes to empty, sorting and bagging now!

Now that you’ve started sorting you should cross post this to r/coincollecting to see if there’s any rare coins in there
