Finally! For several months now I've been checking the Coinstar at my usual grocery store whenever I visited. But I've never found anything in what I figured was the reject tray, and since I'd never used one of the machines myself, I began to wonder whether I was even looking at the right spot. Well, tonight I happened across a Coinstar at a different store, and lo and behold, this one did have something in the discard tray-- just an Italian 5 eurocent piece, but hey, at least I know I'm checking the right spot now!

Very nice! Those reject slots can be very fruitful, last night I got 1935 and 1943d pennies and one of my better machines.  |

Got my first find in a couple weeks at the local grocery I am at 2 or 3 times a week. Today I got a big haul but all common US coins. My wife gets disgusted when I grab stuff out of the machine, but I figure it is the same as finding a coin on the ground or while metal detecting... Today's haul: 2 Sac dollars 1 SBA1 78-D Half 4 ATB Quarters2 Washington quarters (Clad) 1 clad dime 2 Zinc pennies All went into my chum jar and will eventually make their way back to CoinStar when it gets full... |

I have checked the coinstar at my regular grocery for about the last year and half, and found the usual batches of US clad and foreign stuff, but never any silver. Yesterday my wife, who has never checked one before in her life, checked one on a whim, and found this 64 dime. Such is life. . .  |

yakima boy, the one time I got my sister to check a slot she came out with a 1946 s dime. Told me she only got one dime and that's why it's stupid. Tries and failed to explain to her.Today I got a Kenya shilling, a 2015 loonie, a ten cent form Hong Kong, and a dollar or so in change. I heard one of the recent loonies is lower mintage, could this be it?

Illegaltender, I keep checking every one I go by, unless someone is using it. In the last year I have added about $10 to my Granddaughter's college fund, and about $4 in Canadian coins I will spend in Victoria later this year. Small change, but I like doing it. Now,if I could just convince my wife to keep checking . . .

So far only about 10 mangled zinc Lincoln cents to be filler in returned rolls to the bank. Still 10 cents though.
