Americans have less use for coins as more businesses accept digital payments. In many cases, those coins are hidden in pockets, stuck in couches, or vacuumed up. Host J.R. Whalen is joined by reporter Oyin Adedoyin, who visited a waste facility that separates coins from trash, to discuss what people can do with all the change they have around the house.
