    Found Christmas Eve morning at my local supermarket. Dirtier than my feeble photo skills can portray.

    This coin has so much character! I like the design too.

    Very cool find!

    Walked by and noticed something in the tray. To my disbelief it was a 1995 ASE. Looks like its been in a jar since then ; dirty and nicks. Ive found mercs, rosies and wheat`s before but nothing this big - wow.

    That right there is awesome. Nice find. CNGRTS!

    It's been over a year now since my last find. I have 4 different places that I am always looking in. Finally something. Nothing special but boy was I happy to see coins in there.

    Do you keep track of how much silver you've found over the years? Must be hundreds of dollars

    No gutter metal but a single quarter sitting in the tray. Just so happens to be a 2019-W Lowell. Shame it's got some sort of contamination on it. Believe it or not, I check my quarters in change daily since 2019 and this is my first W. RGDS!

    They sure have deteriorated quickly in just 5 or 6 years in circulation.

    Actually I do keep track, but it's not in the hundreds, but closing in ....

    Oh I thought the people grab the coins that didn't go through. I use coin star and I grab the coins that are left. I was asking because when I use coin star I always add collectable coins mixed in. I have already added 2 1964 Kennedy proofs, 3 1958 cents, and 1 1943 steel penny. I like to add them and let people find them to help kind of promote the hobby a bit. Thanks for answering.

    It's been some time since I have found anything other than damaged zinc cents, but today in my local grocery I saw a big pile with what were obviously silver quarters. A photo of what I pulled is below, there were a bunch of French minors from the 1970s and 80s, a 1972 Philippines One Piso, and $6.35 in US 90% silver - 25 quarters and a dime.

    Ho, ho, ho, Merry Christmas!!!!
