In my seven years of being a coin collector I have NEVER found ANYTHING in a coinstar reject tray. Well, Christmas Eve I was making a last minute trip to the grocery store and saw a stash in the tray. A couple cents, a couple Canadian coins, a BOOM! 1959 Silver Dime. Merry Christmas to me!

I see I haven't posted to this thread since May 30. Usually I need to find silver to post, but this time I have found 133 wheat cents today I feel justified making a post.

Last week, in change, I also received a 2003S cent and a 1964P dime. I'm not even sure what store since I was shopping for Christmas in a number of places.

In the intervening months I also have found $0.77 in common change and this stuff:

I found the PGA ball marker during the weekend of the PGA tournament this year.

The wheats I found today look like the "junk" wheats from someone's collection.

133 in total
The 1919 was badly pitted and the 1934D was very well worn. None of the 36's or 55's was a double die.

But still . . .

Wow, that's an amazing find! Silver, world coins and almost three rolls of wheaties are certainly worthy of a post here.

I found a 1970D nickel yesterday and today I found a soda can "lever" or whatever you call them since they are no longer pull tabs like in the 1970's.

Well, time to put the pictures where my mouth is. I check CoinStars regularly and have regular luck with silver, but this is by far my best find and on 1/1/16, no less. Hope it's a good sign for the year. It was all by itself in the beloved reject tray.

Wow, It does seem a bit symbolic- a 100 year old coin on the first day of the year. It looks a bit like a proof, although none were struck that year except for a few ultra-rare specimens.

Looks like AU-50 details. Many 1916 coins were saved shortly after entering circulation, and to see a 100-year old coin is always a good sign, let alone in nicer condition! Too bad the storage darkly toned the luster.
