Found a grand total of 39 cents (three dimes, a nickel, and four cents) under the Coinstar.


Just out of curiosity, how do you check under the Coinstar? I've always been a little too embarrassed to check there.

Cheers!

Nice finds.

I found 2 pennies (a very dirty one, and a 2021-D I think) by a coin counting machine at a credit union today.

I typically take my hand and place it under the machine (there is a small gap between the bottom of the machine itself and the floor)

I found a silver quarter this way once, earlier in the thread.

Not a Coinstar, per se, but the wife found $0.84 left in the change tray at the self check today. No silver, though. Only a copper Memorial cent.

A couple of Sundays ago, I decided to stop at the local supermarket on my way to visit family... the Coinstar reject bin was chock full of coins - to the tune of 32 quarters, 78 dimes, 16 nickels, and 45 cents - $17.05! Sadly, there was only one "good" coin in the batch - a 1938 wheatie, but still, I came out way ahead, given I had spent less than $10 on the groceries I bought lol.
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

John77, it seems that there was $17.05 of good coins there! I'm lucky if there's a cruddy zincoln in the Coinstar I check.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Last Coinstar visit yielded nothing, unless you count a rusty screw as a find.
