<p>[QUOTE="gronnh20, post: 2478379, member: 73224"]I figure this area of the forum gets some real coin addicts popping in and checking out what coins are found and where they are found. So, I want to see if some of you hardcore coin junkies have other hunting grounds, other than just the bank and hitting a coinstar reject tube while no one is looking. I know the super duper top secret locales can't be let out, but, general run-of-the-mill places to hunt coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are two of mine. I'm sure they are known to everyone but its a start. The first one is due to the number of different buildings all over town I work in. Coke/Pepsi machines. The machine has to accept fiat paper money. I am a fiend for putting in a dollar and pushing the "return change button". I have found a few keepers this way. Gives ya something to do while on break. The ones that accept fivers are bonus. You can find these at car washes. Oh, ok I hit a car wash every once in awhile, too. </p><p><br /></p><p>This second hunting ground is a little more challenging, never the less, rewarding though. Junk yards. The pick your part kind. It costs a few bucks ($2.00) to get in. Once inside the bounties are endless. Well not really, but, pretty close.
