IT: that's a fun haul. We've 1 coinstar in a Walmart that serves a pop of 5000, and I'm 20 miles away. So, machine traffic isn't all that much. Plus the machine faces a row of checkouts, so lots of customers passing by. At a large grocery in Austin I went to check out at a self-serve counter and was greeted with three dollar bills and a couple coins in the change disbursing slot and tray. |

Just recently(past few months) started checking the rejects when shopping at the different places. Only once found anything, a very early dead 2016D zincoln. Today, fellow was dumping his jar so did some shopping and checked back. This time $1.07, 2 done in zincolns, 95 cents in unblemished US coins and a 1920 Canadian GeoV dime in G3. Now I will have to keep looking!  |

I'm kind of in shock right now... I saw something in the corner next to the CoinStar machine, but I couldn't get to it... moved a pile of wood (literally) a few inches and was able to get to it... Not sure if it is Gold or Gold-plated Copper, but it's spectacular!   CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

I'm kind of in shock right now Wow, John77! That is awesome, and I wonder how it ended up there! I'm in the wrong state for CRHing and coinstar hunting! Congratulations! |

Thanks, jbuck, coinlover1899, Illegaltender, and aristarchus123... still in shock... I just put it in a 2x2 intended for half dollars... I might venture over to my coin dealer on Thursday to show it (and my 1975-D nickel with the misplaced mint mark) to them.
That particular Supermarket has been very good to me the past two Tuesdays. Last Tuesday I found $3 in that same CoinStar machine, and also ran into a really good friend as I was leaving.

Found a 1958 dime this morning after finding $13.20 in Canadian coins yesterday. This gem was included in the Canadian find, I think it might be Irish.   |
