And another store to pick up some Dixie cups:

 

Another day, another store and voila:



Oh you sexy silver beast!

 

Just scoped out a 46D wheat in a dunkin donuts tip cup, it's a hole filler for me! Don't worry, I replaced it and then some

 

I look very quickly for the wheaties but still haven't had the guts to do the switcheroo.

 

Yeah I did it while she had her back turned, didn't want to look like a scoundrel haha

 

26 cents in modern cents and 1 euro cent today.

 

67c in US change, all cents and dimes, a Canadian 10c coin, and a real washer(the holed variety)

 

Several years ago the local pharmacy had one of those little clear donation boxes for some animal charity, I spied a 1926 wheatie in there and offered the clerk that I would replace that coin with a $1 bill if she would open the box with the key and let me take that coin only. I felt crazy doing that, but she took me up on the offer and I actually put $2 in the donation box.

 

Sweet, I'm still looking for my first 1926. What lengths well go to for coins!

 

52 cents USC no silver again.

 

3 cdn quarters and 1 cdn dime in a coinstar.

 

5 Lincoln Cents including 4 crummy shield cents. But a
1937 Wheatie hole filler.
Put the 4 shield cents back in and printed a receipt for the 4 cents and left it on the shelf.

 

Today my son was going out on a date with his young lady friend and wanted to take her to dinner. Had to take him to the credit union to get some dosh for the date, I went in and checked the reject slot in their coin machine and amongst all the dust, sand, paper clips etc was this thing:



It has been flattened a bit, but the date shows with magnification(not apparent in cellphone pic) as 1865!

Oldest coin machine find ever, couple of weeks ago found a 1902 cent that had a slight bend in the same machine. The oldest find was an 1898 Barber dime about three years ago.

 

Two dimes today in a coinstar. One Canadian and one US.

 

Not as exciting as the last, unless you are a kid, a Chuckie Cheese token.

 

LOL! I should remember that. I tend to just put boring stuff on the counter for the next person, though. I figure maybe it'll find its way to somebody who really needs it.

 

Yeah sometimes I drop the extras in the Make A Wish coin drop.

 

One time I had a supermarket employee scoop up the coinstar rejects about 5 seconds before me. She said she puts it in the animal shelter donation jar. I offered to buy the silver (there was at least one dime I saw). She said "no, I keep that..."

 

Dang! I tried that about a month ago for this beautiful sight.it's a 1962 quarter. There was also a wheatie in the box. No cigar on either coin though.
