bpoc1 Rest in Peace United States 4078 Posts	Posted 10/23/2011 3:22 pm Found a Canadian 5 cent that looks AU and is magnetic with mint mark. Not sure why it was rejected (found in a MI. Coinstar). Jgray, the reject bin is on the lower right in the front as you are standing in plain sight. I believe you cannot make change or switch coins. The machines do not take silver and some others that I'm not sure on. Report this Post to the Staff
n9jig Pillar of the Community United States 997 Posts	Posted 10/23/2011 4:13 pm bpoc: I think Coinstar machines in the USA reject all magnetic coins. Since the only US coin in circulation that was magnetic was the 43 cent it is not really an issue. Since many Canadian coins are magnetic Coinstar machines there accept magnetic coins or the mag sensor is disabled. Report this Post to the Staff

Pauliwalnuts86 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 10/31/2011 11:42 pm I've been checking out these forums for about a month now and decided to join just now. Just started collecting hardcore about 2 months ago. 2 years at a TD Bank Penny Arcade, I found a 1943 Hindenberg Nazi coin. Also found an Eisenhower dollar when the girl was changing the bags.

bjones Valued Member United States 304 Posts	Posted 11/01/2011 10:41 am Wasn't technically in the reject bin, it was sitting on the machine itself as I walked by, but I found an MS 2008 Canadian 10c. Report this Post to the Staff

n9jig Pillar of the Community United States 997 Posts	Posted 11/04/2011 10:11 pm Dumped a bunch of junk coins the other day at my local grocery store CoinStar machine. Found a US nickel in the reject hopper. This is the first time in a month or more that I have found something in a CS machine. I did notice that the machine did not separately list copper cents from zinc cents. The last time I used it it did list them separately. Report this Post to the Staff

gothboi30 New Member 30 Posts	Posted 12/22/2011 11:47 pm This one isn't a coinstar find, but it's still amazing. Back on Nov. 4th, I found a gold coin in the reject tray of the coin counter in my banks lobby. It was a 1911 British sovereign, S mint mark (Sydney, Australia). Was a little dinged up from where it had passed through the machine, so it must've been in AU condition before going through . I needed cash at the time (still do ) so I had no choice but to sell it. I got $385 from a local gold buyer. Some pics are below. WHAT A FIND! Report this Post to the Staff
