One zinc Lincoln (can't remember date, but it was after 2000) found in the Walmart Coinstar.

2007 Canadian cent

[TwoAndAHalfCents]

I took a bag of zinc cents to dump in a Coinstar machine today to get a gift certificate for the Home Depot. Before I could dump them I had to clear out the overflowing reject bin. Here's what I got out of there:

136 zinc cents
18 copper cents
50 Jefferson nickels
40 Roosevelt dimes
61 Washington quarters
That's $23.29 found

But there's more - a very worn out "V" nickel. The date was long gone but it's my first one of those found in the wild.

I also got a South Korea 100 Won (1990) but that's hardly worth mentioning considering all of the other the stuff I found.
