Reject Tray almost Full

[blueberra]

A couple of days ago I made my weekly pilgrimage to pick up a (skunk) box of halves. As I passed the coin machine, I noticed that the reject bin had a LOT of coins in it. 51 to be exact.

Mexico 20 pesos (qty. 1) 10 pesos (1)
Swiss 5 franc (2) 20 franc (1) 10 franc (2)
Unknown country 5 units (1) 2 units (3) 1 unit (8)
Unknown country quarter size (1) Malaysia 20 units (1)
Germany 1 DM (1) 50 pfennig (1) 10 pfennig (4) 5 pfennig (2)
U.S. quarter (1) dime (2) nickel (4) cent (6)
Canada quarter (1) dime (3) nickel (2)
Arcade tokens (2) Trading Post token (1)

Curiously, all of the European coins predated the E.U. -- old school denominations, not Euros.

Nice! A lot of older coins too. The batch in pic 4 are Chinese, the "unit" is fen. Can't tell the Thailand coin in pic 6 (on the left) because the date is on the other side.
