December 20, 2020 – On December 17, 2020, at Walmart North, The Salvation Army found a donation of a full 1 ounce 10 karat gold coin.
It was found in a Red Kettle by Lt. Shanell Debela. “It is always fun to find these kinds of donations in our Kettles but to see a full ounce coin was a first-time event for me and I think for our Decatur Salvation Army. We certainly see generosity in many forms in this community. Thank you to the individual that donated this gold coin.”
A few weeks ago, the Salvation Army received a 2 quarter-ounce 14 karat gold coins. These were sold and equaled a $925 donation. According to the Salvation Army, the latest coin might be worth about $800.
