Recovery Question
https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/saldb9/recovery_question/
Hello,
I am new to this subreddit and an armature with bitcoin. A long while ago I created a wallet and it has about .75 of a bitcoin in it. I have been trying for months to recover it but no luck, you are my last hope. Gold to anyone that can help me.
I have a 12 word “key” that I understand is used to recover wallets/private key. However, this was created about 7 years ago and does contain words not listed here:
[https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039/english.txt](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039/english.txt)
Due to this, I am at a total loss. When attempting to use the local version of: [https://iancoleman.io/bip39/](https://iancoleman.io/bip39/)
It alerts me that words I have are not in the word list.
Is there some form of legacy wordlist or some old wallet I can try to use? I do recall years ago downloading gigabytes of data to my PC use the wallet, but that PC is long gone. At one point I was part of a pool, and I am searching old emails to try to find the pool I was part of to hopefully get some leads. I did some help in r/techsupport back then and posted my public wallet ID a few times but it seems Reddit stops comment history at 5 years, so no luck getting that (not that it would help).
Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: It was slush pool. I can see the history of payouts and my wallet address, but I do think this was a public wallet/key.
