I posted my ugly Mercury dime find from 2/3 where you could not read the date and stated that I would soak in acetone and post results after. See before and after photo's. The coin also needed a little rub from a sponge. Mint turned out to be a 1943S. Also found a 1964 dime on Sunday, also very dirty so soak it also and before and after photo's after the Mercury.

Today’s find: not at a coinstar, but at one of those similar coin counters at publix. This was all by itself under the machine and beats my oldest Canadian nickel that I had found by 16 years.

We have a new coin star searcher.
My wife goes to the local grocery store, I stay home.
I asked her to pick up some scratch tickets for me.
The coin star machine is located directly in front of the lottery exit line so while she is playing with her pocketbook, she notices that there are coins in the reject slot.
She proudly gave them to me when she returned home.
No silver but 2 dimes, 2 Lincolns and one nickel.

Kroger today
As I approached the machine, I see a couple small coins in the slot. Thinking rejected silver, but nope, two clad dimes.
At least i wasn't skunked.
Went into the credit union to make a withdrawal and the teller handed me a Canadian 10c that she had found in the reject slot of the coin machine - a 1960 .800 fine coin.

Grabbed 21c of modern junk out of the Coinstar in Wegman's today. Yay me!
The slot was filled with cigarette ash, so I assume someone just dumped an entire ashtray into it.
A classy bunch we are in Jersey, I tell you!

My wife is not feeling well, so I ran to Safeway for her at noon today, 2 silver pieces just sitting there next to each other in the return, a 57P & a 52S...

1st find for March Sunday the 3rd, 1964-D. I have to mention this, I have now found silver in the Coin Star 18 months straight! The last time that I did not find silver was November 2022 (most all document here). I hope to keep this streak going!

That’s great, I usually check twice or more weekly, but I only found four silvers last year and one so far this year. You must have a good area.

Jackpot today. Nearly $2.50 in small, and I mean small, change, nothing bigger than a dime US, a couple of Canadian dimes, a quarter with Queen Elizabeth on the obverse from the East Caribbean States, (never heard of it). Had to scoop 4 times to get it all. Oh yeah, 3 of the US dimes were silver.

No photo but my local coinstar turned up a few canidian coins and a beat up us nickel. I was surprised as I looked and saw something in the rejection bin.

I don't know what it is. It's not a coin. It might have been some type of pendent. You need to wear rubber gloves when pulling this stuff out of Coinstars! 🤣 👍🏻
Today: a Kelly's Express Car Wash vacuum token (locations are in Stockton and Lodi, I am in Fresno), 5 dimes, a nickel, 4 memorial cents, and a 1944 wheat cent!

joe_360: Does your Jan 20th find qualify as a "KEY date"?!
So far in 2024: I found a Canadian ‘Loon” dollar, 2 circ common Mercs, 4 video game tokens, and 6 modern foreign small change.
30+ years coin shop experience (ret.) Coins, bullion, currency, scrap & interesting folks. Loved every minute!
2nd for March, yesterday 3/6 at the Mexican store. Same as the previous, lone dime sitting all by itself, 1963-D
3 for March, 3/8 1952-D. This one was on the floor with a nickel and 2 cents...
