Many years ago as a young U.S. Soldier I took R&R in your beautiful country. To tell the truth I was having to much fun to remember if I lost any coins. Best of Luck & Good Hunting. trk5capt...

It's not ugly, it's just plain.

Raoul it looks like your finding more American clad then me lately and I live here!

The Aussie 50 cents piece is bigger than the dollar and the two dollar piece is smaller than the dollar, maybe if our coins, U.S. coins were like those we would have bigger finds here, since smaller coins are most times lost more often than larger.
Like those Roo coins.

I spent a week in Malta once and they were using the British system of currency at the time (1965). I never did figure it out! I would just hold out my hand with a bunch of their money and let them take what they wanted! No idea if I ever got ripped off? I was stationed in Libya at the time where they used piasteres....one million to the a American dollar. After a shopping trip to Tripoli, I had so many coins I could hardly keep my pants up! I traded all that for MPCs and got less than 5 bucks back! Monty

If your unhappy with the looks of our money I'd be happy to pay you fifty cents on the dollar Mexican currency.
Let me know.

Man, those coins are pretty cool looking!

It's always weird to me that US currency is foreign money to others...

 

[JakePhelps]

I know, i once saw some US coins selling on ebay from a foreign country and other foreigners were buying them lol. Thats the same as people saving canadian coins from cange, they arent worth anything...

 

[Southcacalaky]

Great looking coins, Congrats, Art...

Come to think of it when I was overseas in the military I did notice a lot of foreigners! Monty
