Stopped and checked the coinstar at local Kroger like I always do and saw a bunch of coins in the reject tray. So I scooped them up and put them in my pocket just getting a quick glance. All I saw was some clad and canadian.

After shopping, I went out to my truck and saw the back of the Capped Bust dime and couldn't believe it. It is pretty worn and holed but I'll take it. The dime (1829) predates Michigan becoming a state (1837).
There was also 61 Roosevelt among approximately $2 so a pretty good score.

Thanks for looking

Wow! WTH?? How does someone miss this in their change? That is wild. Coinstar find of a lifetime right there! I'm lucky to get a silver dime or two in a year. Not a lot of people using the coinstars in these parts.
