Always check them as I go by, since joining this forum, 5 years ago......never a thing. Today as I got closer, I could see there was a coin...........my heart started racing, my mind was replaying all the silver and other cool coins others have found.:hello2: I swooped in ,quickly grabbed it........almost on an excited run. It felt thick and heavy..what was it? I opened my hand and there it was..............two stinkin lincolns stuck together:BangHead: 100_8888.webp

Two for the price of one!....keep looking!
 
I hope it wasn't stuck together with gum like the 2 I found.

..: ANYTHING you pull out of the tray is a NICE RECOVERY Cooper1841 :..
Here is my CoinStar Surfing Log!
 
Nice, keep at it! :icon_thumleft:
 
Oh well, its 2 cents more than you had when you walked into the store !
 
Well, for all the amazing stuff I find, I do end up getting skunked a lot! Keep trying, I find a decent amount of stuff each week, given that I visit the Stop n Shop every day on my way home from school.
 
Well, it's a start! Good luck next time! :occasion14:
 
I guess the machine gave you it’s 2 cents worth..

Now you have to wonder what is the glue that holds them together! Is it old soda? Cough syrup? Grape Jelly?....or something much, much worse? I've scored lots of gluelam coins. Not much coinstar silver though. But, like you I ALWAYS excitedly grab them and later worry what foreign substance binds them together.
 
Really on a roll................Different coin star, another crusty lincoln. Two days in a row Coin Star finds!!! After 5 years of nothing!!
