    this coin is one of the odd ones from my collection and I call it a mysterious coin because, well I know nothing about it. I found this one at a coin star machine years ago.

    Unsolved Mystery

      Hi, smalltimecollector96: :-)

      Do you mean that a coinstar machine returned this round to you as part of a transaction? That is, you used a coin star machine to consolidate your loose change into paper currency, and received this a part of the remainder coins?:

      (FYI, the description of the process below is modern in that a user gets a voucher to be redeemed by a cashier. IIRC, years ago, the machines would just dispense paper currency, plus a remainder in coins.)

      You're allowed up to four pictures per post, so how about adding a picture of the other side of this round, as well as some dimensions?

      I never used a Coin Star machine myself, I just meant I happen to find this coin by one, one time when I use to work at a Hannaford as a janitor and the other side is the same. I have no info on this coin.

      smalltimecollector96, OK, so it was laying there near a Coinstar machine, probably because somebody else had dumped it into the Coinstar, and Coinstar rejected it.

      If the other side of this round isn't blank, how about adding a picture of it to this post, along with some dimensions? :-)

      smalltimecollector96, Whoops, if I could only read. So both sides of this round are identical.

      OK, this looks very similar:

      You might want to contact them, and explain what you found (a double-sided round with the Lola angel image):

      They might have an explanation.
