Not a Coinstar machine, but my wife got a 1941-P Washington quarter in change at a senior center that she visits with her older brother from time to time. She got this about 1-2 weeks ago.

Yesterday at a Coinstar machine in a Safeway store I ran into a family dumping a bunch of coins (mother and two kids). I said that if they had any rejects that I'd be happy to buy them. They got the following four foreign coins and just gave them to me...

Canada 10 cent- 2010
China 1 yi/yuan- 2015
Great Britain 10 pence- 1992
Turkeye 50 kurus- 2014

5 - zinc Lincoln's
1962 - dime

I was very excited first silver in several months.
Silver Monometalism is the most permanent and stable form of money the world has seen. Natural law and history prove silver value is best multiplied by gold and best divided by copper. It is only in this counterfeit currency time when the natural law appears suspended.

Haven't posted on RC in a while, but last night I walked up to a Coinstar in a WalMart, on the way home from vacation so it wasn't in a place I could frequent... but I scored a big handful of coins:

Japan several coins, totaling 156 Yen!
Thailand 25 Satang
and 2 US cents. Not copper.
