I started my retirement 2 months ago, so now I am no longer driving by my favorite Coinstar location on a daily basis. I'll have to make due with less frequent visits to other machines. Today I went to a Walmart not too far from home, and I found this '53 Rosie in the reject tray. It was the only coin there.

Happy hunting, and thanks for looking!

Hi My Fellow TH'er
Congrats on the Silver find! I also found a Roosevelt Dime earlier this year. That was a 1951-D found in the middle of a soybean field. My 2nd silver of the year was a 1943-D Mercury Dime found in the same field! The latest Silver find was totally unexpected; I found a Canadian 5 Cent Silver in a bulldozed property that dated back to the mid to late 1700s. This was an 1886 Canadian 5 Cent. It may not be the prettiest coin ever found but it is my first Canadian Silver found in Virginia. Sorry I could not find the picture of the Mercury Dime but it is in nice shape. ;-)

Nice! I like that Canadian 5 cent!
 

Nice going on the '54 Rosie dime.
Also welcome to the retirement club-now the list begins of everything that wasn't done while you were working.
