Next big find you should do a contest to see who can name everything you found by country and face value.... I love looking at these when you post them!!

Check the Guatemalan one in the second frame also. I can't see the date but it might be silver.

Nice score indeed. Looks like 30-40 bucks worth of stuff.

Do not eschew the smashed pennies. People collect them. Do I also see some 68 ca dimes?

Sweet! Way to go Franklin!

Fantastic spread! That 1876 German 2 pfennig is a W W!

Thanks for the drool-inducing pics.

Keep posting these. I love to see what you get each time. One of these days you might have a coin where someone on this forum offers you $25-50 for it.

Hey hey

I love these posts, and normally keep my mouth shut, in case my jealousy get out of hand

but would you be willing to part with that little key? I have a jewelry box for it, but I have lost my key....

We could not find it but will keep looking. But I think I should take Franklin out to the banks for black Friday to see if they any "junk".
