I haven't found a walker in years. It's also my first 1916, and 1916-S, and first find in the wild for this year/denom. It's my first time checking a coinstar in the city too, lmao.

I really thought it was gonna be a D but I was too worried to try until I got a magnifier.

I have a feeling there's gonna be all sorts of neat stuff in the coming months.

    Wow! A walker and it’s a better date. I once found a walking Liberty half in a coin star, but it was a common date from the forties.

    This is so cool.
    Last week I ventured to the grocery to for the first time in weeks and the Coinstar reject slot was chock a block full.
    I walked right past and a week later I still have no symptoms so I consider that trip successful.

    Don't be surprised if more older coins don't start turning up in Coinstar machine reject slots. High unemployment and bills coming due means people are going to be looking to cash in the jars of coins they have sitting around the house.

    Awesome find. Congrats!

    Forgive the ignorance of my question please, we don't have coin star machines here...
    Why does the machine reject these? Do coin stars reject all 90% coins?

    I'm thinking weight, dents, and size. This might give you an idea on the workings of these machines.

    All I've ever found in the Coinstar reject at the Walmart is pocket change and a a few foreign coins.
    Unbelievable that folks who use Coinstar will leave the store without checking the rejects.

    "Two things are infinite: human stupidity and the universe; and I'm not sure about the universe."
    -Albert Einstein-

    Mistakes are natural. But repeated mistakes without reflection are something else. That may be the “stupidity” he was referring to. In research, he admitted uncertainty openly. “If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?” This shows humility. Even a Nobel laureate accepted doubt. That humility makes the quote less cynical and more observational.

    When you’re done looking at it I’d like to have it back😉
