Gold Coin Found in Donation Kettle

It’s always nice to hear about the generosity of one’s neighbors. It’s perhaps more special — and certainly unique — for collectors when you hear of a collectable coin freely donated during the holidays.

In this case, a one-half ounce American Eagle Gold coin was dropped into a Salvation Army kettle. There’s was no word on whether it was a Proof or Uncirculated coin, but you’d suspect it was the latter.

For more, check out the very short Quad-Cities Online article, $416 gold coin appears in kettle.
