Walked an empty parking lot for 58 minutes yesterday morning. 6 quarters, 4 dimes, 1 nickel and 8 pennies plus 30 aluminum cans. There are a lot of days that I don't do that good detecting??
How and when do you guys get coin star finds? I have looked around 10 times in the reject tray, and there has never been anything!
Hi, My name is Andrew. I'm 12 years old and I love collecting old coins and bills, (mostly US money) I used to be a Coin Talk member, but now I have joined this forum.
I have been collecting for about 1 year now, (As of 1/24/2016)
Hydrant. Are you an English teacher? The quarter and dime were just rolling along They didn't get where they were going because then are in my roadkill container now. Someday they will be traded in for silver.
I was at a store the other day and saw that looked like it may have been some kind of belly button ring on the ground. Left it there. Not touching that!
On my morning can walk I was crossing a street and noticed a quarter. When I when to pick it up I noticed more change. Total: 3 quarters, 2 dimes, 1 nickel and 2 pennies. (aluminum cans - 36)
I would count Canadian quarters. My guess is that most stores would take them and well as other Canadian coinage. Did find 4 pennies at 4 different locations while I was walking today. Sure miss Docks updates on Hockey pucks. Maybe it will freeze up and hockey can be played again
Checked the high school parking lot before I metal detected today. 3 quarters, 2 dimes, 1 nickel and 7 pennies plus a QuickTrip prepaid card with $20.63 on it. I may be able to get a few extra Apple Fritters now
Nothing today... but I did see something interesting...At the Coinstar machine I saw two
women with SIX gallon jugs of coins.... slowly emptying them into the Coinstar maw. I was going
to wait around until they were done, so I could check the reject slot, but one of them was cleaning it out as fast as coins dropped there. Cheers, RickO
Today's finds were the same as the 11th. Quarter, 2 dimes & 6 pennies. Yesterday I walked in the rain a only found one penny but I did find 2 baseballs laying in the street as I went by some baseball fields
Had a nice walk this morning. 2 pennies and 95 cans and...................a Wal-Mart birthday gift card with $19.62 still on it. Won't complain about that????
I found a dime on the sidewalk a couple of days ago. That bling-y earring I found a few weeks back turned out to be junk; finally did a magnet test on it.
Discarded cans are not common around here.... I think most people recycle them.. Sure, once in
a while I see one, but that is rare. I did find a nickel today....not in a parking lot, not in the market... but in the gutter in front of my house....weird. Cheers, RickO
Well I did find 17 cans yesterday. I just didn't report it. Nothing today. Hid Easter eggs for the grandkids. When walking and collecting cans I smash them and put them in a Wal-Mart bag. I do stash some of the bigger items that I find to drive back and get them like an aluminum grain shovel that I found the other day. Haven't gone back yet. Same for car batteries.
There is no refund for cans here so we have a lot of people that just pitch them like good slobs.

Plus, your dime find is legit. Probably no jail time involved in said discovery.

I knew that. Anyway, just picked up a penny off the lot. Well, it was a penny at one time. Extreme damage.
I have a rather large "half cent" collection.
