<p>[QUOTE="Jason Hoffpauir, post: 4427319, member: 67527"]I read somewhere...or someone told me that during our lifetime valuable coinage passes through our fingers and we don't even know it. Something to the tune of $275,000 USD. Not all of us but a high percentage of people. This is done by receiving change from the bank, grocery store, money from vending machines, change we take to the bank and use that machine that counts up our change, etc. So ever since I heard this I have my handy-dandy Loupe and check EVERYTHING...or I put it aside for when I get home. This has provided hours and hours of entertainment...and YES I have found a fair amount of silver.

This has provided hours and hours of entertainment...and YES I have found a fair amount of silver. Usually quarters, dimes, OH yeah you know those coin machines in Walmart? The ones that people put their change into (Coinstar Kiosks); well ALWAYS check them as foreign coins don't fit and are rejected but they could be very valuable if you just check. I have found (2) foreign coins that I made a decent profit from. That was my tip of the day. Enjoy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
