Nice example.

thanks at first i thought damaged coin then looked at it closer when i got home under my 16x mag and found it was a error coin which IMHO is a neat find

Nice. I never find anything cool in Coinstar machines.

That is a unique find.... I have never found a lamination error in circulation... have seen plenty at shows. Cheers, RickO

i was very amazed at finding this penny in the coinstar but i gathered someone thought it was damaged and just left it

silverpop · June 10, 2017 8:26AM

In Coinstar I've found some foreign coins before, but never pre WW2.

Bullsitter · June 11, 2017 11:32AM

I gave up looking.

silverpop · June 11, 2017 11:59AM

never give up looking cause you never know what could be lurking in the coinstar reject tray, trust me i have looked for months in the coinstar reject tray finding nothing, then a few months down the road i find this and another coin

I agree... weeks go by with nothing there, then bingo! Best time is around holidays when people dump their home coin jars. Often find Euro's.... sometimes a silver dime, wheaties often.... Never anything of real value - - yet. Cheers, RickO

If you have that graded don't forget the error box on the submission form and request with pcgs to please slab it with the obverse facing up.

About a week ago I found four 40% sliver halves and about 10c in modern change in a Kroger Coinstar machine. It was the first good find I've had in at least the last few years. I almost felt like a crook walking out of the store with them ... almost haha.

ricko · June 13, 2017 6:12AM

@EXOJUNKIE....WOW... I have never found a half in the coinstar... and you find four 40% halves?? Dang... go buy a lottery ticket...... Cheers, RickO

silverpop · June 13, 2017 6:24AM

EXOJUNKIE sounds like you found a very nice haul

Yeah I did .. and then I heard about one even better. So good, in fact, that I thought it deserved its own thread:
