I can't believe it. Stopped at a yard sale and the lady had a small bag of coins she wanted a dollar for it. One looked gold. Wasn't 100% sure it was. Wasn't going to stand there and look it up on my phone and she was standing over my shoulder. So I gave her a dollar and walked away...

Yeah! 1922 Swiss 10 Francs.
Still can't believe it. All the rest were modern-day stuff.

And I was happy with the 1957 dime that I found in the Coinstar reject tray today... :laughing7:

Amazing find! What dreams are made of, hopefully you can top that one!

That's an instant $150 for you!! Nice find

Not in the form of paper though, it's a keeper for me.
$150 not in the bank. [emoji23] But maybe better that way.. instant savings account right there the way I see it.

All I get is Jamaican coins in ours. I'd be happy with a Rosie!

Yea, had I found it it'd be going straight into an air tite or a slab and tucked away with my coin collection!

Oh wow, gold is gold in any countries language. Just curious what's the face value of that equal to in American dollars?
