Picked up a box of pennies and a box of nickels this weekend plus another $5 in hand-rolled pennies at a different bank.

$5 in hand rolled Pennies:
5 Wheats

$25 box of Pennies
6 Wheats
Unknown foreign coin (left coin in the pictures)

$100 box of Nickels
3 Silvers: 2x 1943-P, 1x 1944-S
32 other pre-1960's
Unknown foreign coin (right coin in the pictures)

Anyone know what the foreign coins are? I think the one on the left is Swiss but I have no idea what the coin on the right is.

hello Codes,

Your right the coin to the left is from Switzerland. It is a 10 RAPPEN, made of copper nickel clad. 1954 there was 3,200,000 minted. The value is about $0.35.

As for the coin on the right, that is from Thailand. It is a BAHT, made also of copper nickel clad. It was minted 1986 - 2000. There was anywhere from 325 million to 390 million minted depending on the year. The value is about $0.05.

Also great finds of the silver war nickel's, I love finding them.

Happy Hunting,
Jason
