NumisRob, hey, at least you got free money! Finding 1 cent is better than not finding anything!   Errers and Varietys.

Quote:I got a 1980-D Lincoln Penny in my local Coinstar reject slot today. Hardly worth reporting, you might think, but this was in England! Excellent! |

Picked these up from one machine yesterday.  . Lately I have been finding a decent amount of US coinage in the machines. Funny thing last week while walking to a machine a guy right in front of me reaches in to check just before me. This happened twice I just started laughing. We are not alone. |

I broke a long streak of nothing in my local CoinStars yesterday and found $2.76 in coin, 10 common quarters, a couple dimes and a nickle and penny. No keepers but at least it was free money that went into my coin jar for my next dump at the same CoinStar.
At the same store I have had some pretty decent luck at the Service Desk, they had about 20 Ikes and a bunch of FK halves that I bought the last couple days as well as a handful of common foreign coins that they gave me for free. They included some UAE coins, Canadian's and a couple Euro cents and 5 cents.

 I found this 1955 Canadian nickel on top of a Coinstar machine last Friday at Pick N' Save. |

I scored again at my local grocery store, where the machine is usually empty unless I get there immediately after someone finishes using the machine. There was a young couple dumping some pocket change (it wasn't much, probably under $30) into the machine and when the wife went to cash the voucher, the husband stayed behind with the kid and the cart. I walked past the machine not expecting to see anything but there was some change in there, so I waited until the couple was gone and grabbed it quickly. I got a 2017 dime, a LMC that's barely recognizable, and 2 coins from Sweden which is impressive since that country apparently went cashless recently! |

Since moving in September of last year, I've yet to find anything other than the odd Zincoln in/on/around any of the local machines.
