I got this 1967 Cincuenta (50) Centavos in change today. It's in pretty good condition for it's age.

Thank you. I was pleasantly surprised when I got home and looked at it closer. It is just slightly bigger than a quarter and you have to hold the two of them together to see the difference.

It's been a long time since I found a foreign coin in my change.

Same. Then again, I have not received much change in the last few years.

I stopped at my local mini mart for some coffee this morning and out of curiosity I asked the cashier if he had any half dollar or dollar coins. I was hoping for a Kennedy or an Ike.
He dumped a container onto the counter and there were eleven presidential $1 coins and five Sacagawea $1 coins. Not what I was looking for but I bought them anyway.
Here are some examples...

I've heard of people finding 10 pesos Mexican coins from the 1980s in half dollar rolls. I can't say I've seen any other pre-1992 Mexican coins found, until that '67 50 centavos. Nice find for sure!

I can't even remember the last time I got any of these $1 coins in change. I should have asked him how long it took to accumulate that many.

Yes, it was, jbuck. The cashier said he would hang on to any others that come in.
