Reject Tube & Coinstar Finds

A coinstar machine in the entrance and very easy to see the reject slot - but this wee bugger was hidden in the dark shadow and unseen by passers by:

Good to get out in the world isn’t it. Be careful out there

 

Went to Walmart to snag some deer corn for our suburban herd on Monday. Pulled these out of the store's coinstar:
1997 quarter with PMD dents & corrosion, my 1st 2026 dime, one foreign and a 1976 clad S dime (impared proof).

 

We usually go there for our curb side pickup. The Misses doesn't want to fool around, and I lose the opportunity to dip in the Walmart fund.

 

Maybe you could ask for a new curb service "by the way, would you check the Coin Star for me, I'll give you all the zinc cents, just bring me the silver."

 

Half the workers there don't want to load the car with our groceries. Hard to find good help anywhere, .

 

Kroger has been doing that for quite a while. Usually to the customers favor.

 

I walked into Kings yesterday. At the coinstar was a guy dumping hand fulls of coins into the machine from a bag. Didn't fully pay attention and left. I went back about an hour later. Kings is about 8 blocks away. He was still at it. This time I looked a little closer he had a cart full of clad in bank bags. I would imagine somewhere around 5 to 1o thousand worth. I think that machine will be out of commission for a while.

 

41 - 1 euro cent
11 - 2 euro cent
1 - 50 euro cent
2 tokens
1 Canada dime and 1 Canada cent
1 Denmark 50 ore and 1 Denmark Kroner
1 railroad cent (flattened)

All of this on or in a coinstar

 

Seems odd a person would use a CoinStar for such a large amount of money. Perhaps he wanted to remain anonymous for reasons one can only speculate...

 

That's kind of what I thought, he said that they had a laundromat, he could have been a roll searcher also. Who knows?

 

I ran into that problem this weekend. Neither my bank nor the credit union my wife uses have coin counting machines for customers anymore. I had a coffee can full of change that's been accumulating for about 7 years, and I wanted to either deposit it or get cash for it, and buy silver. I could have spent a couple hours rolling it, but decided to use coinstar instead. In case anyone is curious, 22 lbs of change is a little over $250.
