Hey everyone,
I was sorting out copper today and found a 1914 $2.50 Gold Indian today! Its suprisingly in decent shape too. I weighed it and it weighs right on, so I'm sure it legit.
Pics aren't the best becuase I don'y have my picture set up set up

| Congratulations, that puts you in a very exclusive club. That is one coin I have not found in my sorting, but I heard a story at one of my coin clubs about someone finding one in a roll. Guess I just need to "sort more." |

Just remember guys, this guy sorts $1000 face a day. So we all need to gear up so we can compete with his finds! ;-P
(sorting amount is pure speculation based on his new business and a guess at what he might have to sort to operate such a business!) |

Where is the pic?
Man that is great!!!! And I got excited over some steel pennies. I would do a back flip if I found gold while sorting copper.
And just think, somebody had this mixed in with their change. |

I don't sort with a Ryedale anymore. I use an idustrial sorter that has been modified to sort out the copper.
I do a zinc accept and than a copper accept. The Indian got rejected both times. |

Was that in a bank bag or a bank roll or a customer roll?
I haven't had any banks that I use offer to give me bank bags of pennies. |
