I found a completely flattened *circular* Lincoln cent in a return tray a couple months ago. This was not one of those novelty flattened pennies, it was still circular.

Change this week from my work's soda machine.....nickels....1939 , 1954D, 1957D, and 1959D. My pre-1960 nickel pile is slowly growing without much effort!
scored a 1943 S silver nic at the bank this morning in the counter reject bin...still had the necklace ring around it......Teller: "we would have thrown that away."
In the coin counter reject tray at a local bank I found an elogated cent, a 2004 Canadian Quarter, a 1968 Canadian Nickel 5 cent, and a 1942 Wheat cent...a very nice surprise.
I have been shut-out so far in 2011 (other than just 95% coppers), but it changed tonight. I got a 50 Euro cent coin in place of a quarter at a Marathon station. It looks nothing like a quarter and is not even the right size, yet apparently neither I nor the clerk noticed, haha. I found it later in the night for a nice 100%+ profit

I got a 1983 quarter Balboa from Panama from the change dispenser at Subway. Must be exact size/weight as our quarter. It's CuNi but I still thought it was pretty cool! Panama is a LONG way from Western NY

My mother found over $1.00 FV in 90% in some old purses she was getting rid of. Keep this in mind if you have older female relatives!

Waitress gave me a proof silver California quarter the other day. I told her what it was and suggested she save it...she said it was ok, she didn't collect coins
