No one will shank you for paying in cash at the conbini, just use them.
Or donate take them to bank and deposit them into your account.
Use them lol. Next time you buy something don’t just hand out a 1000円 note rather put some coins in the mix. Alternatively, if you are feeling charitable, most convenience stores have a small box for donations. Lastly you could visit a shrine or temple and pray or something.
If you want I’ll accept any and all donations. I know exactly how to dispose of this large collection. Or I’ll gladly buy them off of you at a large %? How about 1000円 for 2000円 worth of coins.
Say you have to pay 980 yen. Instead of using a 1000 yen bill and getting back 2x 10 yen coins, you give them 1030 yen, and you get back 1x 50 yen coin. Same thing for the one yen coins. For something that’s like, 97 yen, give them 102 yen, get back one 5 yen coin.
That’s how you get rid of coins.
Take a pocketful every time you visit the bank and drop them in the ATM coin counter. Or do what the pachinko parlor does and take all the coins down to the bank in a sack for deposit. Or buy a tube of glue and make one of these.
Ever since 711 installed their automatic payment machines my coin collection completely disappeared
Is there not a supermarket near you with automated pay? Like you put in the cash or dump in the coins and it adds it all up. Alternative option: daiso or 7-11 I’ve seen with these kind of machines.
Try using them at some local vending machine for goods or recharging your suica or pasmo etc.

Why would you get rid of them? Just bloody use them.
Not again! This question comes up several times a month.

Go to 711. Buy something. Put coins into slot.
