Coinstar machines hate wheaties and tokens! Thank you, Coinstar!

[FreeBirdTim]

I always make it a habit to check out the Coinstar reject tray as soon as I enter my local Stop & Shop. It really paid off today with 21 wheaties, 4 Mount Hope Bridge tokens and 2 quarter sized copper slugs sitting in the tray! None of the wheaties are key dates, but I did get 2 from the 1920's and 6 from the 1930's. Not a bad day at all!

Nice finds. I get lucky occasionally, but most of the time it's clad or Canadian clad!

Nice grab. My wife finally found her first silver in a coinstar about 2 weeks ago. Now she checks them every time!

Congrats

Thanks, guys! My girlfriend rolls her eyes when she sees me headed for the Coinstar machine, but I don't care. I find about 1 wheatie a week in my change, so grabbing 21 in one shot is fun for me.

The copper slugs are pretty cool as well. They're the exact diameter and thickness of a quarter. Someone was up to no good when they made those boys! LOL!

Yes they do. They hate silver too and for that I am thankful.
Great finds.

The coolest CoinStar find I've gotten so far was a secret Service lapel pin.

Don't forget to check the blind spot in the feed tray. I find cents and dimes in that area all the time.

Congratualtions on the very productive coin star "hunt"!

Lately, I have found many silver coins in the three coin stars in my area...I guess people do not check the tray.

Lol Freebird! My wife actually RUNS away with the shopping cart at our local Kroger when I head to the Coinstar...that made me chuckle! Ddf
