In one of the local Wal-Marts last week - hit the Coin Star - nothing super duper,
but none the less - coins for me....
39 cents (1 copper cent, a Jefferson, the rest clad), and a plastic play money cent.

I try and spend the bad zincs. Cashiers take them especially if mixed in with other loose change. I don't think I would try and get rid of 5 at a time though! LOL

Just two cents (both US) at the Walmart Coinstar, but one was a 1942-D in Fine condition. It will hardly change my lifestyle, but it is amazing how your heart skips a beat when you see one of those in the wild.
