What do ya'll do with the foreign stuff you find.

I've gotten coins from at least a dozen different countries. South Africa, Barbados, Chile, along with a couple countries I've never heard of. I average about 1 every 5-6K

Just wondering if folks keep em or trash em?

You're kidding, right?

Actually I just toss them into a seperate pile. It's kind of interesting when they do pop up as I'm amazed to see what ends up in "our" change.

As a side note, this week when I took my zincs to my dump CU, I always check the return for odd's and end's when I'm done and this week was a real "special" find. Got a Nexeum pill in the return. That went into a seperate pile too. The trash pile!!

You're kidding, right?

My standing offer is $3.01 shipped... Just kidding. But yeah, a lot of us really like world coins... Check my signature, and some of my other threads in the "wanted" forum.
