Picked these up at the coinstar on my way back from doing laundry.
Haven`t a clue on there total value but i think there are coins from 16 different countrys there.
OH and 4 more chucky cheese tokens.
It took 2 handfulls to get them all out of the return cup and i joked with everyone in line that we could all go to Chucky Cheeses for pizza and games :hello2:
Any body recognize that Asian coin it looks kind of old.
Happy Hunting all and thanks for looking.
Bill

Bill,
Nice job Dude. :icon_thumleft: What a haul.
My wife just gave me one of those 1 real coins when she returned from Brazil. (4th photo, right side, center)

Hey Dug, Hope your doing well.
Thanks for looking and I`ve found at least 7 mercs in the Food Lion coinstars.
Nothing from the other stores.
One of the managers gave me a small 10k earing he pulled out of the trash cup but he keeps all of the silver :dontknow:
 

Nice score! I guess nobody checks the coin return there after cashing in their coins (shhhhh) :icon_thumright: !

i used to have one the same year you found when i was a kid ,, happy hunting
 

the thick british coins at top look like one pound. If so, worth about $3.20 ... in England. I found 4 one pound coins in a local park, gave 'em to my sister, she's going over there in a couple of weeks.
 

The Asian coin reminds me of a
PAO-YUAN, AD 1038-1039 (worth $2)

The coins with the birds on them (1st pic, middle row) are from Hungary!

You have over 3-1/2 pounds in English currency there worth over $5.25!
 

So all of those coins were just sitting in the return tray?? Why would someone leave them there....dont they hear the coins dropping into the tray?
At any rate, a big congrats to you for finding those! That is a nice haul!
 

Nice haul i always check a coin-star machine , before i retired i worked part time at a super market 11 years that has a coin-star i think i have just over 500 foreign coins not including all the US silver i keep separate coin-star will spit out silver dimes and quarters , i still check that machine when i shop there sometimes the coin return is loaded with foreign coins , only once in 11 years i found a small Gold coin 1 dollar someone put in the machine . Keep looking :thumbsup: Jim . coin stars finds 11 years.webp
