Was curious about what kind of coins they are, and where they're from, so I can find out if they're interesting enough to have the whole collection looked over. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 02/17/2016 12:53 pm Vietnam coin is Thieu Tri, 1841-47. http://art-hanoi.com/cgi-bin/toda?tri-thieu-* Fun bit of trivia, the Panama cent was minted in Philadelphia, as were all Panamanian coins from 1904-1983. The panamanian Balboa is pegged to the USD, so it is worth exactly 1 cent. The 5 Yen is also still legal tender, worth about 4.5 cents (1 yen = $0.008).
