    @ZoidMeister... Nice mixture of coins... I have encountered that type of mix in the past... Nothing recently though. By the way, the Canadian quarter depicts a Caribou, not a Moose. ;) Cheers, RickO

    Visited 4 kiosks for the first time the other day. Nothing found. You all seem to find something interesting now and then but what I don't understand is how anyone using these kiosks miss the fact that there is change down in that very noticable large opening.

    @Tramp... I agree... However, with the frequency we find change there, from one or two pieces, to huge amounts, it becomes obvious that many do not realize it is there. Cheers, RickO

    @Tramp
    true, one would believe so, but some just don't care, could be lazy young people cashing in grandpa's jar? Also, maybe area/region depended, hard to say why...

    Just like fishing, sometimes they hit, sometimes you come up empty, you just got to keep trying.

    I have considerably more empty slots, then ones having coins left in them. But it sure is fun when you spot some treasure waiting for you.

    The Coinstar reject bins have been empty the last couple of weeks... I have found change on the floor of the market, the floor of the drugstore, and the parking lot.... No silver, just modern change. Cheers, RickO

    I like how the silver dimes usually make it to the reject slot on the Coinstar. While I have found quarters, it is usually dimes (for silver). Found one Kennedy half, but not silver. Cheers, RickO

    I struck out yesterday.
    A women was dumping her coins in and every rejected coin went back for a second try or back into her pocket.
