For the first time I thought I'd try one of these machines. Just to see how clean
I'm getting my clad. ;)

Anyway, when I showed up there in the slot was a penny! I'm not one who finds these!
I always get there too late! LOL

Anyway, it turns out to be a really chewed up zincoln. Oh well!

So I do my thing and go to cash in the voucher and I get this back! In change!
From the voucher! LOL

How bout dem apples!! LOL

At least Blingie & Fishy are happy. ;)

Stay warm!
 

Very nice silver find!
 

Do you ever play the lottery? You have good luck.
 

Nice piece of silver back to ya.
 

That's Sweet!!
Bet you were hoping your change would jam the coin star and then you'd get some silver when they opened it up. Lol
 

That's cool!, Ive never found a coin in the reject bin
 

I always stick my hand in the Coinstar. Mostly foriegn coins but sometimes you get usable change. Pulled out a bullet once.
 

We have to do the best we can, these are desperate times.....snow again today....AArrgggg!!

Fine Silver Washington..:icon_thumright:
 

Another hint for coin star hunting. The machines will not accept eisenhower dollars. They end up in the dirt cup inside. So when you cash in some change throw an ike in. And tell them it didn't count your large dollar coins. And you called coin star and they said. For the store employee to open and check the dirt cup. Morgan's and peace dollars also end up in the dirt cup. The employee usually just empties all the dirt cup coins right in my hand. [emoji6]

If I did that, the employee would just get whatever's in the dirt cup AND my Ike! :dontknow: LOL

Yep, maybe you should've said that some public high school students never get past being a graduate from there. ;) I was told that I absolutely COULD NOT be a programmer without all the extra paperwork. College degree/Trade school certificates, etc. Now, I'm a retired System's Analyst after better than 40 years of a career and metal detecting any ole time I feel like. Count me among the "lucky" ones from public HS that was able to rise above. LOL

Now working on my thesis, why the ATP works sooooooo well in the hands of a pulic school gradumate! ;)
