The coinstar only had one coin in it.

its just a dime but hey, im happy! is it 40% silver?

My 8 year old grandson found some silver Kennedy halves and silver quarters in a Coinstar a few months ago, netting him like $25 at the coin store, pretty nice! He's been after a score since, and just found a spendable 40 cents; still excited, and says he's starting a coin jar in his room for his finds!

I've found 9 silver dimes this year, all on separate occasions.

Is this common? Still no quarters or halves yet.

Lol, but maybe I really did get lucky?

Felt two things in the return…. One great one not so much. I’ll take it!

Went to my local store, and there was a person dumping stuff into the machine! Usually I wouldn't bother them, but I saw a Walking Liberty half in their jar! After offering cash for what came out of the return tray, I picked *all* of this out! $860+ in silver alone, plus a bunch of world coins(including a Nazi coin!)

Just wanted to share because I was dumbfounded, to say the least

tell me how this family was dumping very old coinage into the coin machine when it finally jammed (my chance to go over and be nosy) i went over to fix the jam i noticed all the wheaties and asked if he collected or what tbh idk how he acquired all the coins cause im not sure a collector would do this but long story short this is all i could save
ps. there was a war nickel in there and an indian head

Not great, I know, but not nothing……

Just glanced in the return and he was sitting there all by himself.

First silver find...usually just damaged junk. Super pumped...I almost just passed it by!

For context i’ve told my family members to check the coin star reject bin for years at this point. Today was finally the day I got the text. My sister found this in the coin star bin in Maine and she thought it was just an old foreign coin. Nope! Large cent.

I can’t get a year off of it unfortunately but atleast it was identifiable. Always check the reject bins people!

Just checked my store's CoinStar machine this morning and found this WW2-era German coin! I can't believe this ended up in someone's coin jar.

Coinstar at a Safeway

​

I found a nice haul at a Coinstar that had been frustrating me recently:

3700 Columbian Pesos

3.05 British Pounds

50 Central African Francs

1 polished-smooth Dime (my 2nd)

1 metallic "Express" clothing button

$1.11 in spendables (not shown}

My son found 19 steel pennies and 10 regular wheat pennies! He was excited!

Sold my old phone at the eco ATM. Coinstar was right next to it, so I had to check. Here's what I found.

Put it in a flip because holy moly it looks insane. I am gonna get it checked at my LCS tomorrow to see if real. Super dense for its tiny size
