My first British silver coin, considering constantly annoyed by the 5 pence in dime boxes, this is a nice relief!

He had friends. 11 Canadian, a Barbados 10 cent, and a South Korean 10 won. I did get one silver 64 from the box. Also scored a 61 Ben from a mwr ($90 searched) and a teller saved a 1958 Washington quarter for me.
