Checked the Coinstar machine at the grocery store Monday morning and was surprised to see a quarter in there! Got excited thinking it would be silver, but it was just a normal ATB quarter (Denali...forget the year). Not a proof or silver and I couldn't see anything wrong to indicate why it was in the reject slot. And there was a normal 2006 dime on the floor. <shrug> Nothing special, but "free" 35 cents!

Eleven cents in the coin-return bin at the CoinStar this afternoon:



(Sorry for the small cell-phone image. The cent is 1929, probably VG; the dime is 1988, steel.)

I left a Zincoln and a clad Roosie on the counter, for someone who needs eleven cents more than I do...

 

I once found an indonesian coin, (forget how much) a couple canadians, and a really wierd coin I can't identify.

 

Coinstar gave me this ef/au 1943d quarter a few months agp.

 

Shoot, forgot pics.

 

awesome!!!
Yesterday, I tried to exchange my buchet of coins in the coinstar machine, but... $11.5 CENTS PER DOLLAR!?!?!??!
I gave up.

 

Do the Amazon gift card option - no rake, and you can buy just about anything on there. Use it to buy things that are hard to find in your area, a pain to shop for, etc.

 

Nice coinstar find today:

1 nickel
10 clad quarters
5 cdn quarters including a colored
1 cayman islands quarter
1 very worn mercury dime 192x

 

$.11 - clad dime, zinc cent - from my drop bank this morning.

 

I don't post my finds here unless they are interesting coins. Hell, sometimes I'll just leave the coin on the counter if it's not interesting. My favorites so far are a 1917 French 50 centimes coin and a 1905-O Barber dime. Yay for silver. I've also found other foreign coins but none nearly as interested in the French piece.

 

An even better coinstar find today (different machine)

6 clad dimes
5 cents
1 clad quarter
2 cdn cents
1 cdn quarter
2 cdn nickels
3 cdn dimes
1 netherland quarter
1 euro cent

Now the good stuff:
17 mercury dimes
29 silver roosevelts

 

Holy cow. Why can't *I* have stupid people like that around here that dump all their silver in my coinstar!

 

You always have the best coin star finds.

 

Wow. That's all I can say because my jaw is on the floor. Congratulations!

 

It was my best coinstar find silver wise. I have found more in face value once a couple years ago.

 

I use coinstar for Amazon gift cards all the time. My kids have even gotten in the habit of doing this. I shop on Amazon more than any other (non coin) store, so it's a no brainer plus you don't pay the service fee.

 

Coinstar finds today.

 

What an incredible find! The grocery store I frequent does not have a coinstar, but whenever I am in a store with one, it never has any coins in the reject chute

 

I usually don't find anything, but I've made a few decent finds and a couple of spectacular finds. Here are the two best finds that I've made so far (both silver!)
