    .52 in modern coinage yesterday. Had to get them apart as they were stuck together. A little Dawn and in this year's box they go.
    No silver. :(

    Not exactly a coinstar find but I don't know where else to put it and wanted to share. The automatic change dispenser at the gas station popped out this shinny 1944-D war nickel. Pretty cool!

    That's in surprisingly nice shape for a war nickel that's been in circulation for potentially 82 years!

    Nickel-brass, 28.0 mm, 11.65 gm
    Bin is one thousand and this coin is 50,000 old lira.

    Momma still blowing me away. I don't know how she continues to do it. $1.13 clad, a 1845 Netherlands 1 Gulden, a 1899 British Six Pence, and a 1903 Russian 10 Kopeks. The 3 foreign coins interestingly are all gutter metal:
    1 Gulden .945% gutter Melt $19.72
    Six Pence .925% gutter Melt $5.46
    10 Kopeks 50% gutter Melt $1.90
    RGDS!

    What the heck is going on at your coinstar man? :)
    Over the past year of weekly checking I only have gotten random change and the occasional Canadian coin

    The only thing better to add to this story, is Momma was at the store buying you beer when she found these...

    Unfortunately, Wally world doesn't sell beer/wine up here in the commonwealth. But yes I agree. As for the machine and location, don't know, small town with a very aged population. My guess is family members cashing in grandmas change jar at the coinstar. I head the other direction to a slightly bigger town that has coinstars at both Wally World and Giant Eagle and usually come up with squat. RGDS!

    Sure looks like Canadian gold to me. The dates right in the pic if I were able to click to enlarge. It either says 1912, 13 or 14. RGDS!

    I never found any silver at a coin star. I found all kinds of other 'foreign' coins, Euro cents etc. I will have to start looking harder.

    I collect world proof sets, coins featuring composers, mid-20th century U.S. proof coins, U.S. type coins, and whatever else I want.

    Today a grocery store manager brought into the coin shop these silver dollars to sell. She had a clad Eisenhower too but decided to keep that one.
    She said the store she works at has a Coinstar machine and these were inside the machine's internal reject bucket (versus the external reject bin most posts on this thread are found from)
    She said she paid face value for them to square up with the coinstar vendor.

    I frequently have dreams about this kind of thing
