What's better than getting silver at face value?

Getting silver for FREE!!! :P

I just had my first silver score at the bank coin return machine. I just had a small load of pennies to dump, about $10-15. And I was suddenly suprised to see the machine tallying up nickels and dimes and even quarters, then I look in the reject tray and see some more goodies. Altogether, here's what I got for free:

5 extra nickels
13 extra dimes
3 extra quarters
half a dozen canadian coppers
1 beat up '36 penny
1 nice '41 penny
1 nice '42 penny
and 1 1957-d SILVER dime!!! :D

It made my day! :)

Heck, yeah. :) This happened to me a couple of weeks ago on an older coin machine..the reject pile has a silver dime in it. Congrats!
