treasures rediscovered

[lobsterman]

well i just found a box of old coins and trinkets, that i had stashed away several years ago when the kids kept getting into them, these pics are from the first baggie that i pulled out ( all foreign coins ) most are from the 40's, and also a few from the 1800's, and i have no idea what most of them are or where they are from

and that was only the small bag of foriegn stuff , i didn't bother posting all the other bags of coins, i figured everyone didn't need to see the same old US. coins lots of wheaties, half's, dollar's, etc. nothing all that old though, i think the oldest US coin was a 1896 silver dollar. but it was neat coming across that box and seeing them all again , only thing was i know that i must have another box around just like it with jewelry and other stuff i've collected over the years, because there were mostly only coins in that one , i guess thats another treasure for me to re-find on another day .
