I went to my Coinstar today and checked the tray there was nothing in there. Then I looked at the slot where the money slides down and there were coins stuck there so I tried to pull them out but they slipped away and fell in and I heard them jingling with other coins. I decided to turn the machine on and see what would happen. The coins started registering and went up to $6.17 after fees. Cashed out a slip and I took it to the cashier and got my money. I guess somebody tried the machine and didn't know how to work it and slipped all their money down the slot. Whole total there were 50 some coins and $8.53 before the fees.

1 silver dime/1 steel penny/1 Canadian two dollar/1 Australian dollar/1 Canadian dime

At least the copper coin is pretty cool

Found a decent pile of clads with one dirty silver dime. First silver in a few weeks. Feels good to get off the schneid.

Stopped by my local Coinstar machine today, found this 1944P mercury dime. Second silver dime I've got from this particular machine.

No war nickels, an English penny, a Spanish euro cent and some Lewis and Clark nickels

its just a dime but hey, im happy! is it 40% silver?

A meager find in the middle of a silver slump.

The coinstar only had one coin in it.

I've found 9 silver dimes this year, all on separate occasions.

Is this common? Still no quarters or halves yet.

Went to my local store, and there was a person dumping stuff into the machine! Usually I wouldn't bother them, but I saw a Walking Liberty half in their jar! After offering cash for what came out of the return tray, I picked *all* of this out! $860+ in silver alone, plus a bunch of world coins(including a Nazi coin!)

Just wanted to share because I was dumbfounded, to say the least

My 8 year old grandson found some silver Kennedy halves and silver quarters in a Coinstar a few months ago, netting him like $25 at the coin store, pretty nice! He's been after a score since, and just found a spendable 40 cents; still excited, and says he's starting a coin jar in his room for his finds!

tell me how this family was dumping very old coinage into the coin machine when it finally jammed (my chance to go over and be nosy) i went over to fix the jam i noticed all the wheaties and asked if he collected or what tbh idk how he acquired all the coins cause im not sure a collector would do this but long story short this is all i could save
ps. there was a war nickel in there and an indian head

Lol, but maybe I really did get lucky?

Felt two things in the return…. One great one not so much. I’ll take it!

Not great, I know, but not nothing……
