Today's Coinstar $CORE at Albertsons 1976 slight bent variation And a 1951-S SILVER Dime. In other news...all three lotteries are up to an acceptable amount to start looking at
How bout some input on this one folks. I will call the two sides 'front' and 'back' because I don't think it's a coin. Both sides appear identical and they are medal orientation, not coin orientation. This was a CoinStar find.
These tokens seem to be everywhere! Search "Angel Token" on eBay and you'll see thousands of them. https://en.numista.com/24375
Very nice pre holiday scoop. Including a 5 Euro cent and Canadian quarter. A couple of the brownies I can already see will not go through the self serve, but that's the cost of doing business these days.
APX78 It was in the reject slot. Sometimes they take it, sometimes they just take the slip of paper. The machine TELLS you to check the slot. But not everyone here reads English. In the old days before they "fixed" the machines, sometimes a single bad coin would open the floodgates behind it and a lot of good coins would fill the slot. There is a SECOND reject slot, but it is internal. Ike dollars and other things (mangled coins, non coin items) end up in there.
I was at Walmart getting last minute Christmas decorations this weekend. Of course, I checked the Coin Star before I left. I pulled 5 badly corroded zinc cents, 2 clad dimes stuck together and a token from the return slot. I had to do some investigating concerning the token. It’s about the size of a JFK half dollar. The reverse reads NCNB (North Carolina National Bank). Couldn’t find it on Numista. Did find a similar one on WorthPoint Auctions, although their example shows a different bank name. It seems a company like Osborne Coinage made them for banking institutions’ customers to commemorate the event. Since my grandson collects tokens I will give it to him to add to his collection. Quite an out of the normal Coin Star find for me, but I’m not complaining. Return tray finds: Moon Landing Token Wt. = 11.65 g. Dm. = 31.75 mm
