Reject Tube & Coinstar Finds

Dumped at a grocery store branch before work today. Their machine is 6 feet from the coin star machine. I was going to check that slot after I was done dumping, but some lady working at the store reached in while I was there, pulled out a huge handful of crap. Mostly foreign but there was at least one silver dime. I offered to buy it and she wouldn't part with any of it.
Kinda ruined my day already.

I'm not quite sure that most stores would think that is too Kosher to have an employee taking coins out of the machine.

My only find today was some Canadian 10c coin.

 

She said she keeps the silver, and throws the rest in some donation bin by the register - "at least it'll be able to help somebody"...like the local animal shelter is going to be able to do anything with a bunch of foreign coins.

 

2 silver quarters
9 clad quarters
4 clad dimes
1 nickel
and a mexico 10 centavos in a coinstar.

 

46-D Roosevelt from the grocery store coinstar.

 

I was at the store a few days ago using the self check-out and saw two girls using the coinstar, so I took my time so I could wait until they were done. I looked up and they were gone and figured I'd go check it, but before I paid for my stuff I saw the employee who brings in the shopping carts bend down and empty the slot.

 

DANG!!!

 

Today's jackpot coin star find .73 cents and why am I so excited . .......well see image and the find had an 1941 wheat cent as well as an 60 D small date........and yes there's more.....
Why is 73 such an important number? Well I'm glad you asked . .......you see
73 is the 21 st. prime number ,its mirror is 37 ,and is the 12th prime number, and mirror is 21, is the product of 7 times 3 .
and in binary 73 is the palindrone ,1001001 which backwards is 1001001. Pretty heavy huh? Besides I also love loved the movie 1941! A classic!!!!

 

1999 Canadian penny underneath the Coinstar machine.

 

Working on a project for my son's Pinewood Derby car. Needed some CR2032 button cell batteries. Was going to buy some tomorrow.

Then I remembered throwing "a few" of those in my junk pile from coin counter rejection bins...



Most are dead, but I found a few keepers...

 

A mini-pile of Canadian dimes and quarters and a '64-D Dime.

 

1964 1 franc.

 

A sticky dime, a sticky cent and a 2009 dated Chuck E. Cheese token.

 

2014 Aussie half dollar found in the reject slot - Nice coin, if not for the rims ruined by the coin counter!

 

A British 10 pence coin dated 2010.

 

At the supermarket Coinstar at 0630 this morning:



Kind of think they had been in the slot overnight since the store only opens at 0600.

 

All I got today was a Canadian 25c and 2 Great Britain 5p.

 

Yesterday at the local yokel Wally World the green machine produced a pile of cruddy and corroded zincolns, and a lone wolf 1943 steel cent.

 

All current common stuff but the Barbados 10c coin is a bit unusual, but this one was a coin pocket filler!
