Raiden Valued Member United States 137 Posts	Posted 08/14/2023 9:22 pm Hello all, this along with being a post that is a "I'm back!" post, so hello again. I was going to a restaurant to eat and to get there, I had to walk through the store. I kid you not, there were Mercury dimes, Standing Liberty quarters, Wheat pennies, and Indian Head cents, In decent shape inside of a candy machine, on sale for 25 cents each. I got a Mercury dime from one of them and it wasn't in bad shape either, sorry for no photos because my camera is broken. Edited by Raiden 08/14/2023 9:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Maine Member Valued Member United States 450 Posts	Posted 08/15/2023 04:48 am I encountered one of those in the 1970's. It was a crapshoot to get a coin. KInd of like a scratch ticket. What you see in the Gumball Machine is not what you get, but I did get a 1912 S Lincoln AU mid 50's after a few nickels in the machine. I would love to see that again! Report this Post to the Staff
