I was at a local pawn shop when I spyed a dish with a bunch of tokens and coins and medals and other round metal things. I took a quick look at them, asked the guy what he would take for all of them and he said 75 bucks. There were exactly 102 pieces, I said uh?, ok. Heres a few pics of the odd mix.

I have little experience with world coins so other than the 5 franc piece they're all foreign to me.
Sorry I can't help more with i.d. but I just wanted to say that it's a cool find. It's posts like this one that keep me going into pawn shops and searching even though I have yet to find anything cool.
