My grandmother owner a produce store in town here and she use to keep all the odd coins and silver coins that came in for me when I was younger because I started collecting very young.My latest find was posted in the American section where I picked a 1871 Indian Head cent out of my change from Tim Hortons just this week!I will post the pictures of my entire collection I have accumulated from my few years of picking from circulation, please none from coin role hunting.Look forward to future posts and pictures from you guys. Thank you

Those are great bellvegas! I envy anyone who has a store or is a cashier to watch out for neat coins from customers

I used to waitress. Sure wish I had all my tips still to look through!

I still can't believe your good luck with the Indian Head. That was pretty remarkable score in change from a Timmies.

Good stuff, bellvegas,

Pick up some albums, and put your coins in them, better than all in a pile.
AND.... Don't clean anything.


I agree with Dottir, I still can't get over the 1871 Indian Head either.

Nice finds! The silver ML and Centenary dollar are surprising!

"Indian Head
1871- found in change at Tim Horton`s"


I always liked Tim Horton's. There is a valuable variety this year--with the "Shallow N" reverse.
Post pics if you can, and I'll take a look...
