<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JPD3, post: 25310031, member: 116216&quot;]Noted a woman unloading a mason jar at the neighborhood grocery store Coin Star. After her transaction she got her gift card and left, not checking the reject bin. Of course I slid right up &amp; scooped out the contents. When I got home I put up my groceries and laid out my loot: $2.24 in U.S. coins and 2 foreign.</p><p>The non-coinage was 1 machine screw, one small steel ring loop, a &#039;button&#039; battery for some electronic device and a bent costume jewelry earring.</p><p>$2.24 isn&#039;t much, but free is good. I put the foreigns in 2x2s, the rest of the $$ will go back into circulation.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1616866[/ATTACH] </p><p>The two foreign coins were a 2008 Canadian 25 cent</p><p>and a 1983 South Korean 100 Won.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1616867[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1616868[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>One quarter (ATB Ellis Island) was blackened. It is/was most likely a dryer coin. The rim and edges still show cladding. The reverse shows the features of the immigrant family&#039;s faces &#039;smoothed out&#039;, as well as the left side of the building. The face of the child and the mother shows just copper blobs.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1616869[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1616870[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>The only non zinc copper cents were a 1970 &amp; a 1974.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1616871[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1616872[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
