Some of you live charmed lives when it comes to the Coinstar machines.....when I check them (they are found in the customer service areas of the local Wal-Marts), they are picked clean - no rejects, no buttons, not even some belly button fuzz.

Same thing goes for the counters in the lobbies of area banks....

Enjoy it!

I checked the CoinStar machine at WalMart when I got to the store and there was nothing. I checked again when I was leaving and found...

1946 silver dime

It pays to check twice.
