Finally Posting My Random World Coins I've Pulled From Roll Hunting.

Great selection! I occasionally get Canadian and American quarters in bank bags of 10p coins in England.

It's fun to see how even though we are across the world an interest connects us. Though the only time I think iv met an Asian enthusiastic numismatic is on my music thread.

I have a several songs I need to listen to while roll bunting, iv just been to focused on these pennies and my son:). As for machines guessing what a coin is, I have put a quarter into a vending machine and it was recognized as 1$ as for coinstar I dumped about 60 dimes in with 95$ worth of other change and it recognized my dimes as Penny's. Mechanical errors just like any other mass production with machines.

2011. Coin is Israeli, language is Hebrew.

I have found at least another half dozen or so foreign coins since I posted this so I figured I'd update. Most of them are buried on my desk,this one I found yesterday in a dime roll, haven't seen this one before





I'll post some others when I find them.

Cool finds Wrekkdd. I keep my foreign finds as well. I have a couple of the same ones you do.

I'm pretty amazed at the diversity of forign coins iv been finding. Haven't found any forign silver but still coins from all around the world. Some of the ones iv found are quite beautiful, others a little creepy lol but I'm sure it's because I don't know anything about them. The NZ ones with the big statue thing holding what babies is probably the one that weirded me out the most lol. I'll have to do some research so I know what it represents.

Also I will have to look up the animal on the Australian coin, it looks like a platypus/porkupine hybrid lol


Found one more. Think this is it for all my forign finds in the last while. I gave a few away to people at work like a coin from Portugal and a few others.

This one is quite nice, I like sea turtles:p.






Also, the Australian animal is an echidnas. That's a tough work to spell by sounding it out lol. My first try spelling was achidna lol

Fantastic examples!

It almost makes me want to start searching again, but I doubt I would be as successful. It was very rare to find anything other than US or Canadian coins when I roll hunted way back when.

Thanks for the link Numisrob, started reading it through a bit but to tiered to finish lol. I'll give it a good read when I wake up tonight. I'll have to research them all individually so I can label them correctly. I might make a trip back to the bank before bed and see if I can get another box of nickels. I'll keep posting my finds here. When I finally do get to label them all I catalogue it here.
