Thanks guys, I can't believe it either! I considered even an indian head a far off pipe dream, my oldest from the wild was previously a 1912 philly. I'm still so pumped. This will be the crown jewel of all my searching for a long time to come. Today I found a 1983 pound. 16 euro cents, and 17 pesos.  |

Wow Illegaltender... you are my Coinstar hero. I'm amazed you found a Flying Eagle cent in the wild. Very cool. |

When leaving the grocery store today, I saw a woman at the Coinstar machine. When she left, I picked up a Canadian dollar (Loonie) and a Canadian quarter she left in the reject tray. Very nice!  |

Not a coinstar find, but I did receive a 1946 Wheatie in change from Kroger's this morning.

Hit 5 of my machines this morning... and one was in use... as always now, I have a pocket of spare change... the guy using the machine was having trouble with a coin, so I exchanged it for another of equal face value. As I've said before, timing is everything...  CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

Waited patiently as a women dumped a few bags of coins in the machine. She even went into reject tray early on. I figured no luck here. She continues as I watch and I hear quite a few coins go into reject tray. The women finishes and DOES NOT go into reject tray. I walk over had to reach in 4 times to get all the coins out.End result 3 Roosys. I am on a pretty good roll.  |

Thanks, cabowabo! There have been times I've waited as long as 10 minutes at a machine... $2.12 is good on its own merit... but 3 silver dimes amongst? You're on a CRAZY roll! Congrats! BTW, I am going through my CoinStar dimes and am in the process of putting a book together, just to see how many of the 48 silver Roosevelt dime holes I can fill.
