I found a Kuwait 1 fils coin during my sorting; I also found my first dime.

You're doing well with the unusual coins. And it never hurts to get a dime for a penny ;) |

Good question. Probably the dime. In researching it, I found out that Kuwait is the fourth richest country in the world, with a per capita income of $55,000. Must be all that oil. |

For what we (the USA) did for them in the early 90's after they were over-run by Iraq I've never figured out why Kuwait isn't the 51st State already.
Sheesh! |

I have found (1)an unstruck planchet (is that what the unstruck blank is called?) and (2)half a penny. The penny was broken in two. I can't remember if the half I got was the face or the reverse.
