Wanted "Junk foreign Coins"

I participate in a group that does presentations to Schools and youth groups. (Boy & girl scouts included)

To maintain the interest in coins, we give out "junk foreign coins" to all the youth that attend.

We do this
1 because we do not want to give them American coinage that they can spend.
and
2 we want them to see that not all the coins in the world look the same.

3 we want them to take an interest in coins.

If you have any old "Junk Foreign coins" that you would like to donate, please let me know.
We can't afford to buy the coins, but we will be happy to pay the postage.

What a cool educational project!

I have plenty of extra Canadian coins, plus a few of other nations I've collected from my travels. Happy to share...let me know where to send them.

Richard, I can probably come up with a bag of duplicate, common world coins. Where would I be sending them? Send me an email. :)

When do you need them by? I'm looking through some right now and might be able to send some.
