    Nice.... I have not found anything recently.... one little girl scooped a pile of coins out of the reject slot while I was checking out..... She was real excited.... Could not tell if there was any silver. Cheers, RickO

    Another 90% & it pays to loiter:

    Top trio from Albertsons &

    Bottom bunch from Ralphs (I hung around, more like loitered) until customer finished & walked away before I helped myself to the stash:

    Not a Coinstar find... but I did receive a 1940D Jefferson in change yesterday.... Nickels do tend to 'hang around' in change. Cheers, RickO

    OK... Yesterday afternoon at the market.... Three dimes (no silver), six cents (no wheaties) a Canadian nickel (1964) and a British One Pound coin (2002).... Most I have found in one scoop in a long time.... Cheers, RickO

    Probably a teaching tool so the kids can learn the value of each coin add and subtract them.
