<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John77, post: 2519247, member: 79277&quot;]And the CS day got even better! I decided to do a late afternoon run, and found a common LS cent at my first machine...</p><p><br /></p><p>At the second machine, a couple about 5 years or so older than me was dumping what would turn out to be over $1,250 of change into a machine... I sat and waited for a few minutes and then struck up a conversation with them. They were both friendly. I noticed he would scoop the rejects and put them in a jar. He let me look and I saw some normal clad American quarters in there along with the requisite Canadian and Mexican coins and offered to give him half dollars to put through the machine in exchange for the rejected quarters. So he took them and was happy. I also found a thrashed 1954-D <a href="http://www.coincommunity.com/us_small_cents/lincoln_wheat_ear.asp" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coincommunity.com/us_small_cents/lincoln_wheat_ear.asp" rel="nofollow">Wheat cent</a>. He let me exchange that too... then he started putting the rejects on the top of the machine&#039;s counter... I gave them some more half dollars... and amongst the coins was a 1963-D dime... the machine them decided that it had enough and told them they had to finish their transaction when they had cashed in about $1,075 dollars worth. They then started over and he let me pull the coins out of reject bin as they came out... A One Pound coin like the one I found the other week came out and I told him it was worth about 1.30 U.S... Then a 1954-D dime came out and he asked if it was silver... I said it was and he told me to keep it. Needless to say, I was very happy!&nbsp; We exchanged names and bid farewell. </p><p><br /></p><p>I then went to my 3rd machine and, believe it or not, more dumping was happening... 46 cents was in the reject bin... I offered to give them &quot;normal&quot; coins for it, but they said keep it. There was nothing special in there, but it was more free money!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]536872[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
