I always check the coin return in the Coinstar machine at Walmart. Occasionally I will find a silver Rosie. I have my wife and brother doing it now too. Today my brother sent me this text:



Yes, that lucky SOB found an 1845-O Seated Dime in the Coinstar machine!

Wow!! That is amazing and lucky SOB pretty much sums it up. Good for him for listening to his brother.

Walmart is known for the crazy things you can find walking around in there but an 1845 dime is pretty sick!

It looks like a coin that has been in a fire. I couldn’t figure it out.

I've checked a LOT of those reject trays and rarely find much of note, but that seated is amazing! Some minor gunk removal and you have a great showpiece, not to mention after looking it up on PCGS, that's at least a $400 coin! :thumbsup02:
