Now who doesn't want a 1981 REPUBLICA DEL ECUADOR UN SUCRE :tongue3: I stopped on the way home from work to get an oil change. They said 2 hour wait, so I went and checked their coin star and pulled two silvers, :headbang: a 1964 silver Rosie and a 1964 Canadian dime along with a Canadian nickel, clad dime, & 3 zincs. Headed down the road and stopped to check on an oil change at another location. They also had a 2 hour wait. So where did I go?? To their coin star machine. The only coin in the tray was the UN SUCRE, wow now I can check that one off the list. :laughing7:

Two for two at the coin stars. :hello2: Never happened before.

That's wild. All I ever see in the reject trays is dirt.
 

Nice finds! The ecuador coin is cool because they only use US currency now!
 

Not only am I on a coinstar slump...
I need an oil change too.....
 

Congrats on 2 silvers, Loco. It wasn't a wasted day.
 

Well done my man. I haven’t ever found anything in one... but I keep looking.
 

the only rejects i ever see is my reflection on the screen
 

Yep,, I've been thinking about booking a flight to Ecuador. lol
Congrats on the Coinstar score.
 

Silver in hand , good job
 

Sweet finds in a new year, good day bud.
 

Nice recovery! 2 in one day, wow, I'm lucky to get 2 in 1 month! And everytime I check the coinstar I get those looks from the store people...

LOL, hey free silver and some foreign.... I found 3 silvers in coinstar last year including a Barber dime.... mostly I get wheat's and foreign... Oh, and "3" 1943 Steel cents... I find myself, stopping at the store when I'm going past it, just to check the coinstar, even though I don't need anything. LOL
 

Nice job on the silvers Loco. I'll bet you sleep better tonight knowing you scratched that coin from Ecuador off your list !
 

Congrats Loco, sounds like a great day! Let me know the next time you get your oil changed!
 

Dust for me lately in those trays.
 

Thanks for the kind words everyone, I normally only see empty reject bins when I look. It seems that the best time to look is between 1pm and 3:30pm. No sense in going early, the crack heads and junkies are still sleeping.
