Dominican Republic???

Postby TheJonasCollegeFund » Thu Feb 02, 2012 10:42 am

Recent foreign purchase has a bunch of dom.rep. quarters....3 different versions. Can't find a conversion rate.

Do I flip/stack/convert to US?

Thanks

I have a bunch of those along with the dimes.
The shopkeepers there dont even take them, they round up to the next peso.
So try to flip em or wait til you get 1000 and I'll buy for face (shipped) LOL

Thanks...I have been trying to learn a little each day about ANYTHING. From the list, most of the roughly 40 coins I have are 1989-1991 style. Very few of the 86 or 87....which will make it into the CuNi pile I'm working on.
