<p>[QUOTE="ska69, post: 1464026, member: 38623"]<span style="color: #222222"><font face="Verdana">Thanks for the link. That table was actually what turnedme on to the fact that some foreign coins were minted here in the US. I have a varietyof coins from foreign countries and I sorted through all of them last night to see if Ihad any that met the criteria in that list. The only two maybes I had were a 1968 Canadian 10 Cent piece (which Iruled out due to V shaped reeding) and a bag full of Panamanian coins. I was easily able to find a foolproof way toverify the Canadian coin's origin, however, there doesn’t seem to be much about thatPanamanian coins online. At first, Iassumed the lack of mint mark and lack of readily available information impliedthat all Panamanian coins between these dates were exclusively struck in theUS, but I’d rather seek out more evidence to support or rule this out. My ultimate goal is to be able to isolatethese coins and display them with my US Coins, US coins being my primary areaof focus. I really admire the craftsmanshipof the US Mint and I believe these domestically minted foreign coins deserve aplace next to their US counterparts.</font></span></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
