Jlafever Valued Member United States 120 Posts	Posted 04/19/2013 12:57 am I look at the tray every time I pass it but its always been empty. I did offer one gentleman cash for he rejects which he declined. He did, however, GIVE me his rejects. Several different denominations of Euro coins along with British coinage as well as three 1971 Italian lira. I collect mostly U.S. coinage but this was a good deal on a Saturday afternoon. Went home, did a little reading, and learned about Euros, Lira, and a very pretty British "New Penny". Have a great week guys Report this Post to the Staff
Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 04/19/2013 02:10 am Wow - if thats a red New Penny then id be amazed. The oldest red coin I've found in the uk is a 96' 2p. Report this Post to the Staff
tpmjr2004 Valued Member United States 160 Posts	Posted 04/20/2013 8:51 pm I was dumping my halves today at the bank and the woman in front of me had a dime that kept getting rejected. All I had on me were half dollars, so I gave her one of those for her dime once I saw it was silver. It was a '50-D. I wish I would have had a dime on me to swap out instead of the half, but I'll still take it. Report this Post to the Staff

GoldenChest Pillar of the Community United States 814 Posts	Posted 04/24/2013 9:33 pm Been having a heck of a dry spell lately. Finallg broke after a find a the coinstar at my locak Walmart. I walk up to it and see 4 empty bags. Not the first time, so I try not get my hopes up. I stick my hand in the reject slot, into a PILE of coins. As I start puliing them out, I notice a big lump. It turned out to be 6 coppers with a clad roosie in the middle. Kind of shingled at an angle together with God only knows what kind of gunk. A bicentenial quarter and some random damaged coins. Total of $0.64 that I washed and rolled,except the quarter. Report this Post to the Staff
Broseph Pillar of the Community United States 979 Posts	Posted 04/24/2013 9:39 pm Glad to hear people are finding some coins in coinstars! I haven't found any for a while now Report this Post to the Staff
Jlafever Valued Member United States 120 Posts	Posted 04/28/2013 11:10 pm BenByfield - it was a 1971 - It's a lovely coin. I'd never seen one before now. I'm becoming more of a fan of the UK mint with every coin I see. May make a purchase soon. In any event, the actual color is a reddish brown. iPhone photos below. The pics don't do the coin justice. Maybe a USB microscope camera before long. Edited by Jlafever 04/28/2013 11:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I love what The Royal Mint did with the new coins, from the penny to the pound, with the Shield of the Royal Arms incorporated into the design of six of the coins, then shown fully on the pound. Anyone from Britain want to make me a trade for a set of these? I would love to frame them and put them on display. I truly think they are art. Report this Post to the Staff

You sure the people weren't actually preparing to dump their coins and you took these from the top? Wow, that's a lot of coins in the reject tray. I went to the store today and found a 2009 10 Sen Malaysian coin. Still never have found silver. Report this Post to the Staff
