Interesting finds today. On my way into the store, a nickel on the ground. The CS had a nickel in the slot I put it in my pocket and didn't look at it. Then I got 21 cents in the self serve slot. Had to go to another store and there was a quarter in the slot which I didn't looks at. The 2 CS finds were foreign. The first was a 1965 Canadian nickel, and while the photo is bad, it still has original mint luster from 60 years ago.
I look up the nickel and there are 2 kinds small beads 119 count and large beads 138 count. The large beads being SUPER rare. IDK why there are more large beads.
Well from the markers, I couldn't tell which it was. (Canadian coin prices online, they show you all the varieties etc.) This is an excellent resource: https://www.coinsandcanada.com/coins-prices.php
So I counted the beads and it was very close to the cheap one. The large coin is a 1980 Australian 10 cent piece, worth a dollar in MS60 grade condition.

 

Latest finds. Three separate photos for three different times and all in just a couple of days' time.


These I found in the coin machine at my credit union. I thought for sure the dime on the left was silver but it was only a 66.


These I found in a coin machine at a grocery store.


And this Canadian in change when I paid my water bill.

 

This was from a couple weeks ago or so. Nothing fantastic, but still a find!

 

Whoa, check out all the RARE MINT ERRORS on those last three! Look out eBay!

 

Thank you Coinstar!

 

Lovely! Any mint mark?

 

A few US coins and a GB 5p in a coinstar.

 

Wow nice quarter. My oldest is a very thin 1943.
62 cents in the slot today.

 

Xmas scoop.

 

I found an unexpected Christmas blessing of $2.05 at my local Walmart Coinstar today!

 

55 cents between the wife and I at the grocery store (coinstar, floor and parking lot.)

 

WoW. I hope you washed your hands Mister!

 

32 cents US and a CDN nickel in a coinstar.

 

CDN is who publishes the Greysheet. I've never seen "Canadian" abbreviated that way. Perhaps you meant CAD?

 

You figured it out...

 

Checking the Walmart CoinStar yielded 6 Lincoln Cents.

 

Scorage!

 

Found these sitting on top of the Coinstar machine when I was dumping off the rejects from my last coin roll hunt:
1993 Mexico 1 nuevo peso
1991 Germany (West) 1 mark
1989 Venezuela 1 bolivar

Didn't have the Venezuelan coin in my collection yet, so added it to my foreign coin book.

 

Found a 10 Euro and a cheap silver toned earing.
