Joined the gold club in January 2014. Found a 1/4oz Australian gold nugget coin stuffed in a penny roll. The roll had 51 total coins so i didn't even pay a penny for it lol

I saw a gold rim in the quarter slot in the teller tray. She said it was a gold quarter and that I had a good eye. She gave it to me and I had hoped for a gold eagle but alas it was a gold plated state quarter.

How in the world does that happen? Who would put it in a penny roll haha.. So 1/4oz is the size of a penny then? Cwr or mwr?

I found a few gold rings and earrings inside coin machines while dumping halves... the largest ring found I pawned for 250.

Gold coin woulda been awesome, although I found plenty of gold plated halves, and a few dimes and quarters.

I remember someone stating that he bought a modern 1/2 oz $25 gold bullion coin for face value at a bank a few years back.

I know we all find silver crh but has anyone ever found a gold coin? Any threads on anyone finding something? Very curious, imagine finding a 1/10 oz gold eagle in a dime roll haha

:goldcoin: I don't know if this would count as I found a 1916 Cuba Cinco (5) Peso gold coin in a reject chute. See my thread of 11/22/14 titled "There's Gold In Them There Reject Chutes".

I heard a story where a guy found a $5 gold piece in a nickel roll. This was back in an article of coin finds from 2007
