@CoinForMe Quote: You guys are good, I don't have coins from faraway places to display ...try checking at your Local Coin Shop (LCS) & see if they have any "junk" bins (coins the dealer hasn't had time to classify & price) ...my LCS has a foreign bin with about 35 pounds of coins ... sells them @ 4 for a dollar ... takes me 1/2 hr. or so to go through, & I find good items every time I search ...I've found some really nice AU/BU specimens, & some worth $5-$20 or so ... I'll spend 3-4 dollars every visit, even though foreign, in general, isn't my main interest ... ... here'[s a neat little aluminum coin, BU, worth maybe 4 bucks...got it for a quarter ...  ...check around Orlando, it may be worth your time ...a cheap treasure hunt ...

Bummer, you cannot get from Jamaica to the USA because you would bisect the Cayman Islands.
