1950 Coinstar Silver!

Wolf-Dog · Apr 4, 2020

We made a quick stop at Walmart on Monday, and when I checked the reject tray in the Coinstar machine, I was really happy to find this little guy.

I also found a total of over $6 in the 2 trips prior to this.

Thank you for looking & God bless!

Nice. I am still looking. Had to pick up a special order at Walmart. A guy Was dumping coins into the machine. I kept hearing coins hitting in the reject tray. Yes my hopes were up. Unfortunately he scooped all the rejects and put them in his pocket. I moved a little closer and could see a coin. Reached in and pulled three zincolns and said I think you missed these. In over seven years of looking I have found one other coin. A 2017 dime. I am beginning to think you guys are pulling my leg.

Thank you, George!

That is too bad. Hopefully you find a nice big silver in it soon to make up for all the times there hasn't been anything. :cool3:

Congrats on the Coinstar silver! (wash & sanitize) Looks like a well-circulated "Bluenose" dime. The sailboat depicted is named The Bluenose.

People are cashing in their change to buy the things that need around their house. Nice job on the piece of silver that you retrieved.

Thank you, Blaise! I didn't know that about the ship. :grin:

And yeppers, I wore gloves and washed the coin a little, too. I'm glad I can trust God and know He'll do what what is best for me.
