There are lots. They happen to be African. ;) But yes, I know what you meant. Not too many of us Western, English-speaking, coin-collecting...
I see I'm not the only one who included a memento of an African childhood in my Eclectic Box. :) We lived in Tanzania in 1972. I turned 7 years...
Deserving of a thread resurrection. Sorry I overlooked this. I like what you've done here.
These are very common but you did very well for a 20c pick bin grab. Usually the ones you find in pick bins are much more heavily worn and/or...
At a glance, all Chinese. The ones without holes are early 20th century. The cash coins with the square holes might be a bit older. Best I can...

Two points is a pretty nice upgrade, and I'm happy to have the TrueView. This is another one of those where the plastic cost me more than the...
Hmmm... how about now?
I'd call this one a win. :) [IMG] [IMG]
They're a pattern, but why they were made I do not know. Who uses obsolete designs in patterns? Patterns are supposed to be about the future,...
