Well well well! I for once had a productive time with Coinstar machines today! As we all know, some people don't check their rejected coins at the coin star...so I do! That is about $5 worth of clad coins, including 2 $1 coins and it gets better. 2 silver 1951 Roosevelt dimes! There were also a ton of arcade tokens, and foreign coins. I took the silvers, the dollar coins, tokens and foreigns and gave the rest of the regular coins to a Walmart worker. Neat finds! I love Walmart coinstars because you get all sorts of wackos in there! Also, a wheat penny which isn't pictured!

Totals (minus the clad I gave away)

2 2000-P $1 coins
1 1996 200 Lire coin
3 Mr. D Tokens
1 King Tiger token
1 local arcade token
1 Chuck-e-Cheese token
1 2 Euro piece
2 1c Canadian (1987, 1974)
2 1951 silver US dimes
1 1952 wheat penny

I was shocked! Apparently according to the worker I shared the score with, people use the coinstar more than 100 times a day at that location!

Those are some nice coins. I look in the machine every time I go to the store and usually find some modern coins. Today I decided to stop and finally hit a jackpot with some old coins. It sure made my day since didn't find anything detecting today. Hope you find some more old ones on your next run.

Big Joy when a Coinstar produces a treasure...my kids always make a point to check them out.

Nice haul! I found my first coin in a coinstar today, a 2004P clad dime (I just started a week ago)
