價值2,661美元的金幣捐贈給拉皮德城的救世軍紅水壺

自感恩節前的星期五以來，救世軍一直在敲響鐘聲，用他們標誌性的紅水壺收集捐款

RAPID CITY, S.D. (KOTA) - The Salvation Army has a special surprise waiting for them Tuesday after collecting donations in their signature red kettles since the Friday before Thanksgiving.

南達科他州拉皮德城（哥打）——自感恩節前週五以來，救世軍在他們的標誌性紅水壺中收集捐款後，週二給他們帶來了特別的驚喜。

A 1998 American Gold Eagle coin valued at $2,661 was wrapped in a $20 bill and donated at the Family Fare on Mt. View Road in Rapid City.

價值 2,661 美元的 1998 年美國金鷹硬幣被包裝在 20 美元的紙幣中，並在拉皮德城 Mt. View 路的家庭票價上捐贈。

This isn’t the first time a gold coin has been donated in a red kettle, but its wrapping is a first according to Black Hills Area Coordinator Major Jerry O’Neil. He said the donated coins are usually wrapped in Peanuts cartoons.

這並不是第一次用紅水壺捐贈金幣，但根據布萊克山地區協調員傑裡·奧尼爾少校的說法，這種包裝方式還是第一次。他說，捐贈的硬幣通常用花生漫畫包裹。

O’Neil said gold coins show up in red kettles across the nation and whoever is involved stays anonymous with no indication of who it may be.

歐尼爾說，金幣出現在全國各地的紅水壺中，無論是誰參與其中，都保持匿名，沒有任何跡象表明可能是誰。

“It’s just a beautiful, I think a beautiful genuine gift. Whoever does it isn’t seeking to get any kind of notification, they go way out of their way to hide it and make sure nobody know who’s putting it in. In my four years here, sometimes it’s come in at Rapid City, sometimes it’s come in at Spearfish. It’s just been a great, great opportunity, very excited about that,” O’Neil said.

「這真是一份美麗的禮物，我認為這是一份美麗而真誠的禮物。無論是誰這樣做，都不是為了得到任何通知，他們會不遺餘力地隱藏它，並確保沒有人知道是誰把它放進去的。 ，有時它出現在拉皮德城。這是一個非常非常好的機會，對此我感到非常興奮，」歐尼爾說。

O’Neil added it has been a great bell ringing season despite the late start. He said there are still plenty of opportunities for people to volunteer.

歐尼爾補充說，儘管起步較晚，但這仍然是一個偉大的賽季。他說，人們仍然有很多機會參與志工服務。
