Went to the store last night and there sits the coinstar machine!! I check the coin return (goes back to the old payphone days!) and I find out that the machine doesn't like silver coins!! SCORE!! $1.85 in silver coins, including a merc!!

Ya, Coinstar really "pays" off.

I have scored 2 1964 Rosie's in AU
A BU 54 Rosie
a 1910 XF Lincoln cent

The other day I hit it up and found $6 in Sac's

What do you do with coins like these?

I've had a small pile of "junk" silver sitting on my desk for a while now...

When you really get lucky is when you learn that they don't like gold either.

That's quite a coinstar score.

Hey Marty....

YOU SUCK!!

Hey Marty,

If that small-mintmark D nickel is a 46-D, you may have scored bigger
than you think. It could it be a left over war nickel planchet struck in
1946, subsequently rejected by Coinstar?!!!

Nah...no way

They must have new machines in my area. I've never found anything more than a few slightly bent Lincolns, Jeffersons and an occasional foreign coin.
