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.

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

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.
