Dont know coins New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 02/26/2014 11:31 pm Hi, My children and I are collecting coins from around the world. We are doing this as a fun hobby and are not serious collectors or worried about valuable coins. We have identified coins from 138 countries and are down to two coins we can't identify. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Don't Know Coins * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

But my dad brought them back from his time in the Air force. The were used for juke box and other coin operated games and such. The Soldiers were not paid in US currency but paper script so anything that needed a coin had to have a special token instead of an actual US silver coin. Edit: I think the date might be 2054, which translates to 1997 AD maybe km1014.3 10 Paisa (1994--) Edited by ASLAN TVorlon 02/27/2014 01:32 am Report this Post to the Staff
