Because someone who looks all around before checking the slot seems so much less sketchy than someone who just checks the slot as he passes... ;)
Not long after the CoinStars appeared in our local grocery, I found a pile of money in the reject bin, gathered it up, and took it to the...
The good news: you've only lost money that you needed to buy coins, not that you needed to cover groceries or rent or car payments. Look at this...
If it keeps going down, putting more money into it is a waste. If it comes back up, that's great -- but realize that you're trying to predict the...
It was started as a joke. A lot of us think it continues as a joke. Leave your money in, or double down with more, and you might get another...
Every once in a while I check the going rate for MS62 1921 Peace dollars on eBay. It was a bit of a shock last time I checked in. They'd been...
Y'know, this might be a good time to use that "edit thread title" feature, just sayin'...
Full-rim pre-1923 Walkers at melt? Yes, please!
Wow. That's just... wow.
The better date is 1913 no mint mark for Barber halves. (The picture shows a half, not a quarter.) A 1913-S quarter in Good is a thousand-dollar...

I expect (or at least hope) that the "developing circles" are on the case, not the coin itself. Pictures will help.
Might be a sleeper. I wasn't fond of the headband design, either, until I saw the 2019 "Head Asplode" design.
Wish I could make an arrangement with a local jeweler to get coins like this. If they had bags with Barbers for close to melt, I'd take all they...
Yeah, I also can't see PCGS letting out a label with both Fedral and Plater# right there at the top. And, of course, $30 as one of the...
Looked like bismuth to me.
Hey, that second one doesn't belong. Heavy metal is only a subset of rock when we're talking about music. ;)
Well, that's a surprise. Given the number and similarity of keys they're moving, I figured there was no chance they were genuine coins.
If they're dirty with sugar, soaking them in distilled water should do the trick without damaging them further. But if the sugar came from, say, a...
Meh, you can do a lot with a hammer. ;)
