All I want for Christmas...Is silver!

At long last, I've been silvered! A few days ago, as I was leaving the grocery store, I checked the CoinStar bin for rejects. Normally there's one or two coins/tokens in there but, this time the bin was on overload! Not only was there slightly over $5.00 in perfectly good coins, but amongst them was a 1941 merc and a 1919 wheatie. Christmas wishes do come true image

    WTG. And I'll bet you din't believe in Santa Claus. A Merc and an old penny. That's a good wilcard find.

    Don't ya love that. Last week I got some Canadian clad. I've had a half dozen times where the bin was full and probably pulled out about a dozen silvers in the last couple years.

    This particular CoinStar location has treated me well with wheaties, but this was a first for American silver. I've gotten some strange stares from onlookers in the past, but I figure what the heck! Who's the weird one, the person who leaves money behind or the person smart enough to pick it up and put it in their pocket?
