Didn't ever see any other threads about this so start I would start one.
Whenever I go to my local grocery store I always take a quick peek in the coinstar reject slot. Every once in a while ya find something good.
Post em up.
Last monday I found an 1980 Cdn nickel, Cdn qtr and a beat up dime.

We are supposed to post skunks on these tracking threads, right?

6 months of checking every Coinstar machine that I pass - skunk.

1959 Roosie last night.

I noticed a coin on the coinstar countertop. It was a 1983 Canadian quarter that nobody wanted! I found a Franklin Half in another machine a while back.

Only cool find was a netherlands 25 gulden .999 nickel on top of a coinstar machine. Other than that, nada

My usual practice of checking the coinstar machine at the grocery store got me 2 cents. One copper and one zincer. I guess i got my 2-cent's worth at the store!

$0.22 found in reject tray:
two zinc pennies stuck together (a modern day 2 cent piece?)
two .999 Ni Canadian dimes

$0.36 bought at face value from a Coinstar user:
included two .999 Ni Canadian nickels and one copper Memorial penny

$0.32 bought for $1 from a Coinstar user:
included one 1956 Roosevelt dime

$0.20 found in reject tray:
one steel Canadian dime
one CuNi clad U.S. dime

Found a 1960 Canadian Silver dime.

Posted this in the pocket change find but it belongs here. Went in the local food lion to get some groceries and checked the coinstar machine (always do) and pulled out 2 dimes and 3 pennies. One of the dimes was a Merc. and one of the pennies was a wheaty both in good shape. Not bad!

Had a jackpot the other day. $1.53 in US and 1.62 in Can

Went into the local credit union (dump bank) to unload some coins and checked the machine before dumping mine in and the tray was full of coins! Pulled out 3 clad quarters 2 dimes, 1 was a 64 silver, 1 nickel and 16 pennies (only 2 coppers). Not bad for a dump run.

made second dump run of the day to another credit union and found a 1966 cent.

2 canadian cents, 1 zincoln that was heavily corroded - 10% of the coin or more was gone.

Another clad quarter, dime, and 5 pennies. Gives me $0.42 for the year.

Found a '79d SBA dollar in the reject tray of the coin counting machine at my bank when dumping nickels today.

ALSO : Does the '53d Roosie I eyeballed in the coin change machine thingy tonight @ Subway count???

A few months back I found these:

Costa Rica 10 Colones (2008) - Aluminum coin a little smaller than a U.S. quarter - http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces3756.html

Dominican Republic 25 Centavos (1991) - Nickel clad steel coin the size of a U.S. quarter - http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces1089.html

My younger son Theodore found this today at Safeway.

Neat finds, how bout the garbage can next to the coin counter at the bank.
Canadian 1977 quarter, and 1963 nickel // 2 cent Euro // 1998 1 Dirham

Found a 1983 Canadian nickel. And not too far from the machine I found a Canadian quarter.

1 genuine clad US quarter

Found a U.S. clad dime while dumping zincs at a CoinStar this morning. Then I found another U.S. clad dime at a different CoinStar machine. I thought these machines were supposed to accept the clad ones and reject the SILVER ones.

1963 d quarter and a 1964 d dime

2 zinc cents stuck together

Well, here it is.....my first coinstar find......1 x 1902 Republica Mexicana Un Centavos! It was laying under the machine. I spotted it just as I was walking out. The link below was the best description I could find about,but if anybody knows more, I would appreciate the info!
