Post some unusually shaped foreign coins

I thought this would be interesting since I know the weird shaped coins always jump out at me. Here are a Ceylon 5 and 10 Cents, a Pakistani 2 Anna and a Netherlands 5 cents, all with weird shapes. Let's see some others!

One of these days I will buy a complete set of the Somalia guitar coins

 

These pics are from Joel Anderson's site (http://www.joelscoins.com/gift.htm). He always has a lot of interesting items. These Somalian "coins" aren't my thing but they are unusual!

 

Jezzz if the Somali's would make more Harey Davidson coins, they would not have to be such murdering pirates.
Lemme see if I still have a photo of my Brit Cartwheel. Abhhh yes this one with George III no wait a minute its its its Little Bit/Elizibeth.:smile

 

Very very pretty..I like this one!

 

Here are 2 square anna-coins from Hyderabad.

 

Another square coin, but this time a hammered coin: a paisa from Gwalior (KM#233)

 

Scalloped coins from Hong Kong and Guernsey

 

There's examples in my post above.:smile

 

Oh yes! I could have saved the trouble placing them!
I place one from South Vietnam instead.

 

I know most of you wont understand the articles, but take a look at these coins.

Sorry not appropriate for young un's to view

If there is a coin you just MUST know more about, post its picture and i will translate the text for you.

 

Um, Taxidermist, that first link you posted has some seriously Not Safe For Work (or lunch) images along the left column...

 

Sorry, had no idea. I haven't seen anything "Not Safe" or any ads banners ever since i started using Firfox and Adblock Plus with NoScript, and its about 7 years now.

The collection of coins is still awesome.

 

Well here are a few coins on deposit at the "Bank of Yap Island." Without a doubt these are the strangest coins in the world !!! :foot-mouth:

 

You may want to delete those links before the kids get to them.:yes:

 

Those are simply amazing, Zohar!!!
