ODD Coinstar Finds

[B|lker]

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
Any body recognize that Asian coin it looks kind of old.
Happy Hunting all and thanks for looking.

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

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 Jim .
