Yahoo!! The Coinstar return had 3 dimes in it today, including a '64-D and a 1947.

    You'd be a disappointed collector , those machines reject silver and i'd imagine gold too.

    Some vending machines do as well. Was waiting for a woman to make a choice and her dime kept getting rejected. She asked if I had a dime to trade her. I did. Then looked at her dime. 1963. image

    I did not notice it was silver until much later. There was no one to give it to!

    I am still waiting to find "any" kind of coin in a Coinstar return.

    A guy I know worked for them a few years back. The coins didn't always reject, and would drop in to a metal box in the machine. He would find Morgans and Peace dollars in there, up to about 10 or so last I heard. He wouldn't sell them to me.

    There must be a lot of people around me that know about coinstar machines because like Johnny9434 I never have any luck finding anything in the reject tray.

    I will add to the 'never find anything' chorus.... the checkout clerks keep a close eye on the machine in my local market. Cheers, RickO
