I have found some silver in the coinstars but more often than not, as a cashier working near one, I get the folks who didn't know what they have. Best find ever?? the 11.70 in silver quarters and dimes that some guy had after a 11:30PM dump at night. Told him three times since it was sunday to take it to the coin shop across the road in the morning and they would give him 100 dollars for it. He didn't listen and I bought it using my mom's money I had. the next day silver jumped to 45 dollars an ounce for one day. He could have gotten over 200 dollars for that silver. I laugh every time I think about it. But you would be surprise at how many people don't look at the reject bin or they have canadian money that they throw away. I have gotten 80% canadian silver quarters and dimes and if someone comes and turns in a voucher, I ask if they want to turn in their canadian for american dollars. ::coughs coughs:: =) I would check the coinstar website, get a listing of your area's coinstars and see if the stores are open 24hours or not, that really helps since a lot of coin returns happen at nighttime. And there aren't a lot of CRHers out at 2am at night. Me I don't go to sleep till 4 am in the morning. and there are 4 coinstars in my area that are at 24 hour stores. Was thinking about spending a whole day at the coinstars, grocery shopping, checking, buying something, checking more.
