    Found these in one of the bins at the coin show today. Love the shape of the two from India and the Netherlands. The other two I just liked the designs of.

    Enjoy

    Darryl,the Indian coin is a 10 Paise.The coin with the double eagle Coat-of-Arms is a nickel 20 Heller from Austria.I see the cupro-nickel British 1/- & the Dutch 5 Cents over here quite often,as they are usually in old collections that my boss buys in.

    Nice coins Darryl. For some reason I have always liked the odd shaped coins.

    Cindy,I've got one of those Indian 10 Paise coins similar to the one depicted,but dated 1965.The 10 Naye Paise coins of 1957-63 are more common though.

    Cindy, Thanks - I liked that one too - the detail and design is nice.

    LSM - It was fun to big through the bargain bin to pick out some neat coins at a very reasonable price. I do not have many odd shaped coins in my collection, so I could not resist. The coin from India has a nice reverse as well while the coin from the Netherlands is simple yet eye catching.

    Best Regards,

    Darryl

    Darryl, I also like going through the foreign coin bargain bin. Some dealers are not that knowledgeable about foreign coins so you can pick up some nice foreign coins at a very reasonable price.
