Thanks, I walked inthe store and saw a man dumping a big popcorn tin of change in and decided to linger and see if he would grab the rejects. there was also about 3 dollars in crud covered spending change. A quick bath in lemon juice and salt, the are now clean enough to spend. Lol

.99 cents in the reject slot. No silver. But free money. I'll take it.

In the past few days, I've found a few foreign coins and other modern coins that are deformed enough to get rejected, but yesterday, in addition to a really messed up penny and 2 quarters with some weird substance on it, the Coinstar machine at a Shoprite produced a 1958-D nickel in brand new condition!

I went to the drug store yesterday to pick up a prescription and a few other items. I was happy to find a parking space near the door between two cars. When I came out, both cars were gone and when I went to put my purchases in the passenger side, this was on the ground. Not a CoinStar find, but it's 61¢ I didn't have before.

I'm donating the common coins I find in Coinstar machines these days to whatever charity has a collection bin at the end of the registers hoping for a a little Coinstar Karma.

My first find in nearly two months!  Also, a first of a kind find. I got these two today at the Coinstar. It's kind of like a before-and-after photo.

Found $.87 the other night in the coinstar at the grocery store. Got a little excited because one dime looked pretty old, but, it was a 67 clad, bummer.

nss-52-the 2005 Minnesota quarter reminds me of the Canadian loonie. I happened to have found only one up here in Canada, CRH, and put it away. Nice reminder, Thanks.
