Stopped at a loves truck stop on our way home from florida and they had a machine called "riches to discover" and it was 75 cents and you would get a little plastic bubble thing...and inside was a random old coin...mostly wheat cents...but also buffalo nickels, mercurys,etc...i tried searching for this machine online...id like to own one just not sure where i would put it...either way kinda cool though

Sweet! If you find some pics online, please post.

I was gna take a cell pic but i had forgot my phone in the car and was kinda in a hurry

A little research will discover them. Those little capsule machines have been around a long time with many little items in them.

Yah i remember the capsule machines from when i was young...i just wasnt sure if the machine was like "homemade" or if its made and sold like that

I've seen those before. Years ago. Got some crappy foreign note that got killed by the Iron Curtain collapsing for I think a quarter.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is a hot seller. Get a machine, get the capsules, get some inventory, get some plastic baggies to minimize damage and rattling if it's coins, and find a spot to set it up.

Trouble is security. Betcha one determined crackhead or group of kids will easily swipe your machine a/or stock with one smash and grab.

Lol...i use to be one of those kids so ive already thought about that...just not sure where i would set it up at....possibly a mall? My mom owns a tanning salon i could try it at....also know some people who own gas stations...biggest issue is finding this damn machine! Been searching for over a hour now

Finally had some luck!

So, for 75 cents, you "could" get a silver certificate, or a number of other coins that aren't gonna be in there?

Sweet.
