    nice handful!

    i'd for sure check the coinstars more often if they'd net a nice haul like that.

    That's not just a silver dime, it's a Mercury dime!. :)

    I save all my Canadian. Going to take a trip there someday and pay for everything in coins. :D

    Wow, what a score! I'm going to have to start checking coinstar machines.

    Makes me wonder, why didn't the silver quarter and dimes get accepted into the machine?

    What is gong on with this Canadian dime, it almost looks like an incomplete clip. Is that really an incuse line on the face of the coin or is it camera glare?

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    Coinstar machines are notoriously "tight". Not much gets by them. They only want current US coins.

    It’s the normal design and not incuse.

    Even a Mercury dime! Nice haul. :)

    It looks normal to me...

    I can hear the sound of the coins dropping, cha-ching, cha-ching…
    Just like a slot machine paying off.

    Well that is a bit embarrassing. If I had made out the date I would have checked myself and saved you a post.

    They get rejected based on size and weight I believe.

    Interesting mixture, to be sure.

    Love the USMC coin and what is the coin with the angel on it?
