While counting change to make rolls for deposit in our special savings account my wife found 2 silver dimes! At Friday's silver price of $36/oz those 2 are worth $5.20 or $2.60 each! I used the handy-dandy calculator on the Carl's Coins website to figure that out.  http://www.carlscoins.com/

Wouldn't Coinstar have spit those out? I thought that machine was sensitive enuff to not accept silver.

You should have found them last week, would have been worth much more.

I thought coinstar was smart enough to keep silver but spit out foreign coins. I found a silver dime and the floor near a coinstar once but I think it was Mexican or Canadian...
