)

Dimes:
Box 1: (250) - Skunk

ya i keep all the foreign coins i get (besides canadian dimes i just slip them back in the dime rolls

). Fun to have a random little pile i guess even if they are worthless.

I'm in Florida, so I get lots of coins from the Caribbean and Central America. I'm saving them up to use as "pirate booty" for my little niece who's really into pirates right now. The Canadian dimes are pretty convincing pirate coins too with the sailboat, as are the British pennies with the portcullis.

I'm keeping a couple of the more attractive ones for myself. My last dime box had an Australian penny with some of the nicest toning I've ever seen on a coin, and a cool purple coin from the U.A.E. (I think it's 10 fils).
