It's been a while since I've found anything of note, so imagine my surprise when not one, not two, but six brilliant UNC 1957 dimes showed up today among a bunch of other random change.

Here's some pics:

    Cool. I don’t normally pay mind to Coin Star threads other than enjoying reading , but …. That’s a “you suck” find in the numismatic arena, if you asked me. Congrats, for even looking in the reject bin. I still have never looked. :o

    My own Coinstar luck has been completely absent of late. Not so much as a zinc rot infested Lincoln.

    Now that's a great find, congrats. I have never found anything in a coinstar. Did get two washington quarter rolls all silver several years back. That was my greatest find. Wish to find another today. lol

    @FlyingAl —If you think these possibly came from a roll…is it possible to buy the bag of dimes in the machine? What if the other 44 are in there…
