Yup. You never know what you are going to find.

During my time on another forum (yes, there is such thing), someone found an AU 1828 Half Cent in a Coinstar. Talk about out of place.

Wow that is simply amazing! I agree maybe take it into a jewelry story to see what kind of stones they are. Pretty crazy how that made it through the machine and I wonder about how somebody misplaced it that badly. Very interesting nice find!

How would this even get through the counting machine? Was it in a CWR?
One-of-a-kind find though!
Waiting for jewelry store results...

Nice one! I had a similar find when I first started CRH. I found a 14K gold ring in mine. They are the middle part of a two piece ring. These things are the perfectly the size of nickels. When I found it I was really shocked:
