Just found $3.16 sitting in a coinstar machine. Checked it going into the store, nothing. Checked it coming out and BAM! Nothing special in the loot, but hey, I am $3.16 richer :D

Found a 1978 quarter with casino rim damage and a notch ground out of it in the coin counter in the bank lobby today while dumping.
The machine broke so they had to open it up and I snuck a peek at the secret internal reject slot but the only thing int here was skittles and some debris.

Skittles? Huh.
I remember as a kid watching them empty a coin counter. I recall seeing a gold coin on top, but I assume it was either gold plated or brass.

I am pleased to report that amongst the $3.54 in change that I recovered from a Coinstar machine, that there was a 1964D quarter in the mix!

I feel like someone else has been checking the Coinstar at my grocery store... up until February, I was finding something every week, but now, I haven't found anything from that machine in over 2 months...

7 really bad looking pennies, they went into my Granddaughter's college piggy bank.

Finally broke the dry spell! It appeared there was nothing in the reject tray at first, but upon closer examination, there was a 1 cent Euro! Glad people are still leaving stuff behind, makes me have hope again!
Also, I went to another grocery store with a bank inside afterward and a man actually beat me to the reject tray! He was looking in it before dumping his own change, but luckily, the coin he found was just a 1995 quarter that was beaten to heck, so he barely got back any of the money eaten by fees!

My first time finding change in the reject tray, and I get some silver! It's my earliest dime find in circulation so far.

Found a couple of coins at a grocery store Coinstar yesterday. My oldest silver find to-date (1941-D Mercury dime) and a Habitat for Humanity token.
