    While searching U.S. dollar coins, I came across this in one of the rolls. My first Djibouti and in fact, only my third from the Horn of Africa. Probably my first camel also.

    I think it is cool when you find a foreign coin in a roll, even if it means you were "cheated" out of some money. But, in your case, you may have made out ahead. In that condition, it could be worth well over a dollar.

    Agreed. Fun find. Heck, I've gone through tens of thousands of World coins in bulk lots, and do not recall ever finding one from Djibouti. Maybe once or twice, years ago, but not so much as I'd recall.

    Double camel bonus!
