Was this in or around DC by any chance? That’s the only place I ever get dollar coins. I think any machine on government property has to accept them, and they seem to be the default change option for all the metro services.

I love getting them because they’re the perfect size for me to do that thing where you walk a coin across your knuckles.

Think i got them at the John Wayne Airport when I used a $5 bill in a vending machine. This was at Anaheim CA at a 4 start hotel I was at for a business trip. Had a similar experience at a Seattle hotel. Most vending machines that take money now will do $1-10 and pump out dollar coins as change.

I've seen them be given as change at microwavable food vending machines.
