Ok so I bought $200.00 worth of half dollar rolls. Found 18 silvers and this medalion thing. The rolls came from the bank and it was in the roll. It says "st christopher protect us" has anyone seen this before? I've looked for an image all over online and can't find one to match. Please help I'm curious lol 1439586107102.jpg

It's a St. Christopher medal, some may be silver, this one doesn't look it though.

I found several versions of this medal with a quick search of "World War 2 GI St. Christopher Medals"...............

tiny,

Your medallion is copper with a silver wash.....a bit different from what you'd expect in a roll of halves.

If they rolled it up once and sent it out, they'll roll it again. Throw it back. See how long it takes to come across it again. You may be surprised!
