I added the new countries to the list.

Really cool thread.

I'm going through my pile of coins found in rolls. I stopped keeping Canada dimes that I find so I leave them in the roll.

Panama was the only country I found that I did not already state and someone else found it too.

I got some other foreign coins from the Constar reject tray. I do not think they count though but I will say them for fun.
Here are my two favorite coinstar coins
Tasalvalta
Republica Srbija (that this is how it's spelled)

 

With due respect to coinman1234 I will not be adding CoinStar rejects to the list, but thanks for the Republica Srbija note.
Up to 26...looks like I may have been a bit optimistic with my estimate of 50!

This is probably Suomen (Finnish) Tasavalta (Republic).

 

I find a lot of Canadian coins. I live in Wisconsin and have probably found close to $3 in Canadian coins, but I have only found 1 peso. I wonder if people in texas or other southern states find more Mexican currency than Canadian? Or if the Canadian currency is more common since it looks similar to US Coins.

I also found this Icelandic Krona. I am a huge fisherman so I really like the art on it, I hear they are really worthless though haha. Kind of neat though.

So I guess I have only found:
Canadian
Mexican
Iceland

In terms of monetary value, yes. Then again, the list posted here says "Greece (Euro)" but simply "Italy". Assuming that the latter refers to lira coinage, that would have a monetary value of precisely zero. Same with "USSR". But I agree, that 1 krona coin is neat.

I am sorry if this one was already listed. I just want to help get to 30!

I am at work so I can't really do research on it, but my brother found this in a box of nickels. He said it was from some island but couldn't remember what it was.

Again, sorry if it was already listed. It's got some pretty art on it

 

Never mind. I guess it is Norway.. Sorry for wasting a post!

 

Right, Norway. That bird can be visited in a museum in Oslo, by the way.

I had a French Polynesia 10 Franc coin

 

I added my French Polynesia Gold colored 10 Franc coin!
Does a St Jude Medallion count?

 

"Does a St Jude Medallion count?"

Hmm, what country would that be? And where would it be legal tender?
I don't seem to find the country of St. Jude on any recent map, at least not this planet.
I guess we'll have to pass.

 

I found a Japanese 1 yen in a a nickel roll just the other day. I've also found a a 1944(?) Curacao 1c. I know there are others but those are the 2 I can think of that aren't on the list at the moment.

 

Germany (Euro), Spain (Euro), Italy (Euro), France (Euro), France (Franc), Missouri (sales tax token), Austria, Chuck E Cheese, Switzerland, and NORFED. Also, a Cuban coin i got for free from a teller (does that count?)

 

I didn't even count all the various euro country coins...

 

I have another to add. A.1943 new zealand penny in a roll of halves.

 

I got one that I forgot to post. I found an 1869 silver Austria-Hungary coin in a roll on dimes.
