Six Silver Day Without a Detector.

[fyrffytr1]

I took a shirt back to Walmart today and passed the Coin Star on the way, but it was empty. After returning the shirt, my wife and I did a little shopping. On the way out we passed the same Coin Star again. This time there was a handful of coins in the return tray. I scooped them out and when I got home I found 3 silver dimes and 3 silver quarters, one a 1929 Standing Liberty.

This close to Christmas, there should be more finds at the Coin Stars.

JACKPOT !!!!! Congrats !!

One of my better days at a Coinstar machine. someone stacked a bunch of rejected quarters in the back of the basket. I dont recall the exact amount but remember they were several US & Canadian silver coins. Been a while since Ive found silver but its mostly a single dime here or there. I found that going during lunch hour is a good time !!!

What's a coinstar ?
And how do you find coins in it ?

 

[Ray(Ca)]

It’s a coin redemption machine that takes your loose change and converts it to a gift card for small fee. They have them at most large supermarkets. They have a reject tray that gathers all the reject coins. That’s what I focus on first, then I check the hopper on top where the coins are loaded in. I’ve found many silvers and old coins. I’m still looking for my first gold coin!

Wow what a nice haul. Especially the SLQ! I've checked my local coinstar often and finally found the first coin recently. 1978 penny lol. Maybe someday I'll find a silver but hasn't happened yet!

Thanks.
Where do you find them in the store ?
I've never seen one.

They are usually up front past the checkout.
