Foreign Coins in Rolls of Halves?

[changedman]

I've only been searching halves for a few months now, and was wondering if any of you ever found any comparably sized foreign coins, tokens, etc. in your rolls of halves.
As for me, not yet..

I probably find one foreign coin a week. The most common being British Pennies.

It happens once in a while. Balboas and $2.00 Canadians are most common for me.

Because of their closeness in diameter, when searching rolls of US halves, the foreign coin you'll most often find mixed in are the pre-decimal British pennies and the medio (half) Balboas from Panama.

When searching bags, off of coin counters, than that's a whole other scenario. Just about anything, it seems, can be found mixed in with the US halves.

I find foreign coins in rolls of halves once in a while. Probly a couple times a month. Find them more in dimes though
