gonefishin Valued Member United States 112 Posts	Posted 05/26/2007 10:35 pm I know this sounds crazy, but I am a fan of the TV show Survivor. I enjoy collecting different types of coins. So, I thought how about collecting a coin from each place they film a Survivor show. Puala-Tiga Australia Kenya Africa Marquesas Thailand Amazon Pearl Islands Panama Vanuatu Palau Guatemala Panama Fiji China (next season) Do you know of anyone who can help me find a coin from each location? I don't really care if its scratched or the type of denomination etc...Just something that I can make a display....I'm not sure how to start.... Any suggestions? thanks Report this Post to the Staff

chrycopaul Pillar of the Community Canada 1106 Posts	Posted 05/26/2007 10:48 pm First I would Google the names of the more obscure locations. The Vanuatu site for example gives you information such as what currency is used on the islands. Report this Post to the Staff
Thundercoin Pillar of the Community United States 675 Posts	Posted 05/26/2007 11:09 pm Well if you are crazy for liking Survivor, then so am I. It is one of the few shows that I actually watch every week when it is running. Cool idea with getting a coin from each of the location! Report this Post to the Staff
Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 05/26/2007 11:18 pm Nothing wrong with your idea at all. I never would of thought of it! My wife and I have visited about 12 foreign countries, and have coins from each one. I haven't really watched Survivor, but your idea is a neat one. Report this Post to the Staff

I'd research the currency and see what you want from each one. All dollars as an example. Puala-Tiga - I have no clue what this is Australia - easy to get Kenya - easy to get Marquesas is part of French Polynesia I think...easy to get Thailand - easy to get Amazon is Brazil mainly...easy to get Pearl Islands - I believe is owned by Panama - easy to get Panama - easy to get Vanuatu - easy to get Palau - little harder. Doubt you'll find a good coin under $20-$25 Guatemala - easy to get Fiji - easy to get China - easy to get Report this Post to the Staff
Topher Pillar of the Community Canada 965 Posts	Posted 05/27/2007 12:05 am A lot of Aussies go on holidays to Vanuatu, so you may find someone down under who can help you with that one. I also remember getting a few Fijian coins in my change when I lived in Sydney, too. Pulau Tiga was in Malaysian Borneo, so you should have no trouble getting Malaysian coins.
