Scottishmoney Posted June 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Two trips to coin counting machines at my credit unions today Credit Union 1 Hong Kong 10 cents 1987 sort of a cool find East Caribbean States 25 Cents 2004 - ho hum, I get these every week or so. Mexico 50 Pesos 1988 - get these all the time, they are thicker than a quarter so they reject. Kenya 1 shilling 2005 - now this is a cool find, I don't find too many coins from Africa. Credit Union 2, stopped to cash in about $100 in cents and nickels from another bank bag search this afternoon Checked the reject slot, and look in - imagine my surprise when I see a dateless Standing Liberty Quarter. I have found silver Roosies before, but never a silver quarter in a reject slot. It is probably AG-3 at the very best and I cannot discern a date on it, but one of my better individual finds in recent months. I would upload an image of it, but my camera gave the ghost yesterday.

Scottishmoney Posted July 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 Probably from a much smaller bank(we're talking they now have 3 branches since they were opened in 1895!) but finds none the less- Australia 5 cents 1993 Honduras 20 centavos 1994 Honduras 20 centavos 1994 Honduras 50 centavos 1978 Kuwait 20 Mils 2009 Kuwait 20 Mils 2009 Kuwait 50 Mils 1974 Syria 2 pounds 1992 A note on these, I know that the depositor of most of the change that goes into my bank is a transit authority so that these coins must have come into the fare boxes. I have to imagine the Kuwaiti coins could have come from a serviceman, the Honduran coins from a visitor there or a migrant worker from there - but the Syrian coin?

Scottishmoney Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I wait, like 40 feet away and just keep my eyes peeled. If I am at the bank and someone leaves a pile of common change in there and I can catch them I will give it back to them. Otherwise it is like the saying, "all is fair in love and war". When I was in a line in the bank one time for the machine a lady was there with her small kids and complained about the rejected coins and I piped in that I was willing to pay her face value for them - mostly older Canadian coins like cents and five cent coins that are worth more than face anyway. She sold me those and a couple of British coins she somehow had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
