Quote: I was at a Fred Meyer the other day waiting for this woman to finish with the coinstar. I swear there were a few silvers in there, but she scooped them all into a plastic bag before she left. Ouch.  Better luck next time.

You should've gone up to that woman and offered her a dollar or a few for the rejects, most people would be happy to get rid of their change even if you paid a little over face for them.

I could have, but she looked like she was in a hurry.

That makes sense, but what I don't get is why people in a rush take their rejects, as evidence at my grocery store of hurried coin dumps are: -Plastic bags or coin containers left around -Money left in the dumping mechanism -Dumping mechanism left in mid-air
And half of the time, there are at least a few rejected coins in the tray and lots of times I have found silver under these conditions.
BTW, I found a coin-shaped battery today for the 2nd time in a row.

Actually, I just remembered- it wasn't a complete loss, I lifted up the dumping tray and there was a nickel (1979-D I think) behind it.
