Gold coin in the golf shoes-
I remember hearing something about a lady giving some things to Goodwill while her husband was away, including a pair of golf shoes that he had a gold coin hidden in. Did anyone else hear about this?

I thought it would've been kind of cool to have quarter eagles in a pair of "penny loafers".

My apologies, but I cannot find a photo to post here. Perhaps, when Regulated returns home he can post one.
New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
