I was going to the coin star to cash in some clad. There was a guy in front of me cashing in his coins. But when he was done he didn't check the return trey, Well I Did and sure glad I did because there was a 1953 dime and a newer Canadian dime. Free silver.. My first time finding silver in the Coin Star return trey!!!

In the past I have purchased many rolls of coins turned into banks and a local store. Found many sheathed and silver dimes in penny rolls and dime rolls that have peoples hand writing their name and phone number. Typically from banks I only get rolls of half dollars, often buying all they had in the vault (which is usually only about 2-3 roils) I have found about 50 pre-64 ones, and about 10 franklin halves. Make the winter go by. I just replace with other coins already checked and return them when done.

How in the heck do you just find a "flying eagle" in a Coinstar? That would be incredible to just come across one like THAT! WTG though.

Lol I may start looking when I go to the store. Nice silver.
It kicks silver back out, I'm guessing because of the weight difference. I noticed this too a few months ago. I washed up a bunch of this years clad to turn in and apparently there were a few silver rosies in there that I looked over. When I threw all the change in the Coinstar it kicked the 2 rosies back out. Good thing for me.

Nice going on the silver dime JBEXPRESS !!
I found these in the Coinstar yesterday .In the past I've found a few silver Rosies , quite a few wheats , one Silver Washington quarter and several foreign coins . I check the Coinstars every time I shop . A few times people have left large numbers of pennies .
Pictured here are yesterday's 61D Rosie and Korean ten Won .
