[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 1322498, member: 27832"]There was a time when you could find interesting coins in circulation. CoinStar machines are helping to return us to that time. Some CoinStar machines do reject silver, although I'm not sure how reliably. I've found maybe $3-5 worth of American coins overlooked in reject slots, and I think there were three silver dimes and a silver quarter in that amount.
