Both West and Central Africa issued bi-metallic coins - a 250 CFA and a 500 CFA. I have some in a jar in a suitcase somewhere in a storage shed. If and when I find them, I can send them to you. Memory is fading fast here, but I think the 250 CFA coin was quite short-lived.

 

They would find a nice warm home here and not have to live in a drafty shed LOL

 

Greedy greedy

I would put them in a cloth bed, sit them under a small lamp to keep them warm, hire their own personal servant to tend to their every need ...

oh, i thought we were comparing who would take better care of the coins

my appologies gents

cool coins as always De Orc

 

Once I find them (and now I have a mission), I think there are enuff for the both of you.

you should get the bi metalic coin from the us that is one coin that looks good and even yours truly doesnt have it

 

Been offerd it but there is no way I can afford to pay that amount out for one coin, the wife would kill me LOL and then sell it

 

are you sure she will kill you first? if so you can leave the coin to me i your will. that way she wont be able to sell it and you will get your revenge

 

And she would kill you as well LOL Seriously it is well out of my price range

 

ok look atthe shiny guilder i posted Halleluiah its christmas

 

Steve I just looked you don't yet have the bi-metallic 1000 bolivar coin from Venezuela. I posted one in my Omnicoin collection have a look if you want I can send you.

 

Do you have a link to your collection?

 

OK found it LOL, love your Egyptian collection, they are super and no I dont have that LOL

 

My bank teller just handed me a 1997 Hungary 100 forint last week... Such an odd coin to find in SW Iowa. But it goes nicely with my French 10 francs that I brought back from the service...

 

That must rank amongst one of the oddest :bow: I have just aquired one of those as well via a fellow CT member :hail:
