Hello everyone, Yesterday I got myself another handful of coins from a Coinstar reject tray. These were my finds.. $1.85 in US Coins 6 Foreign Coins 1 Coin Battery Angel Token Foreign Obverse & Reverse Great Britain, Netherlands, Poland, Spain & Cuba This is a neat looking 1963 Cent that I believe was damaged in an industrial dryer. No Metal Detecting yesterday Saturday.. My wife and I volunteered at our church to organize the kids storage supply room. I took us 5 hours.
We got rid of a lot of old supplies and outdated material. We couldn't even get the sliding doors of the closet to open before the work.
WARNING, @paddyman98 has come out of the ground and is attacking our Coin Star machines. This is unacceptable, if you see him near a Coin Star throw some dirt near him and he will retreat. Let's keep him where he belongs, he is the mole guy he belongs in the dirt. Thank you.
I often thought of seedlings his front yard and covering them with pretty things. But he would have to dig.
Honestly. Paddy has his own found alphabet system for finding coins. Something like FOGW (found on ground walking ). FIPM’s (found in parking meters). He’s an inspiring finder.
Meow stopped finding coinstar reject coins years ago. Meow suspects the machine started keeping them. Meow used to find coins and even silver coins in the reject bin when Meow first started CRH all the time. Now practically never happens.
Coin star find, too heavy for a gang box plug. Feels and looks like a blank nickel planchet? Side one and side two. What is it? No ruff edges like a plug. 2.00 thickness and 21.33 dia. Maybe unfortunate it Sticks to a magnet? Weighs in at 5.485 grams.
I like the Cuban 5 centavo. It isn't easy to find recent Cuban coins due to the embargo, and the fact that eBay won't let people list them for sale. Even tougher are the Cuban Inturist coins which are not supposed to leave the country.
Missed this earlier. Looks like it has a convex and a concave side, implying it was punched out without any special measures to keep it flat. No rough edges -- maybe just a circulated plug? Or, more likely, tumbled/churned?
We have a coin machine in the lobby of our credit union. A while back, I drop some of my coins in it. It was my first time. I looked for the reject box and couldn't find it. I asked a friend that works there, where the reject box is. She told me that it was in a secure box in the back of the coin machine. She told me that if a customer wanted to check the rejects if the receipt doesn't tally with my count, I would have to ask the teller if I could check the reject box. I was off about 3 cents and not worried about it, but the reject box is not openly available.
I don't know about anybody else, but when I talk about checking "the reject slot" on CoinStar machines, it's an opening low on the front of the machine.
