Magic with quarters

Ok. Follow me here. This is a change machine in a movie lobby - right by some video games. It dispenses quarters, not tokens. Nothing exciting there. BUT WAIT! It is _magic_! Take a quarter and sign your initials on it. Insert it in the slot. Your quarter immediately falls through the machine... and comes out... A QUARTER! Ah, but the magic? Your signature is _gone_!

To test the powers of the machine I magically converted the same quarter consecutively to about 20 different commemorative states.

20 times? When did a change machine become a game unto itself?
