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.

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...
