Joecontois Valued Member United States 404 Posts	Posted 09/15/2016 10:58 pm Hello, I have $4.48 in face value of world coins and $3.57 in face value of Belize / British Honduras coins. I don't have any attachment to them and I am about to take them to my local flea market, an airport, or my bank to cash them in. Can you guys tell me if there's anything here that I shouldn't do that with before I do it?! I'd also appreciate any suggestion on what method you would use to cash these in. I know they're not the greatest pictures but I think you can get a fair idea of what's here. Thank you very much! Edited by Joecontois 09/15/2016 11:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 13496 Posts	Posted 09/16/2016 12:23 am Banks don't take foreign coins. Nor do moneychangers at airports. Nobody does, except coin dealers, and they usually buy them by weight rather than by face value. The only surefire way to get "face value" for them is to go to those countries yourself. Some of the coins (eg. the Israeli ones, the old Finland one, the old Greek ones, the Australian cent and the British Caribbean Territories dime) are obsolete and no longer have a "face value" in the country of issue. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

joeysanders627 Valued Member United States 408 Posts	Posted 09/16/2016 01:10 am Belize is a beautiful country. I would use the coins as an excuse to go there and spend it on something. Report this Post to the Staff

Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6030 Posts	Posted 09/17/2016 02:16 am You could probably get a few bucks if you put the Belize/ British Honduras lot on eBay. It's a small commonwealth country, which means decent interest in proportion to very small mintages, often under 100,000 per coin per year. The silver coins are worth some decent money, but you might get about $5-10 for that second lot after shipping.
