I am out of town for the weekend and decided to stop by a local coin shop and ask to look at their foreign junk coin bin.

Found a 1943 British 6 pence for about 10 cents :)

I need to find a better coin dealer. The only one that I have in my area has a junk bin that is not priced. He decides the value of the coin when you go to pay for it.

Yeah I know not worth much but finding it in the junk bin is still awesome

Also found foreign exchange way below exchange rate so overall was awesome deal.

Just got a french 1931 10 Franc it's .680 fine. Not too bad for $0.10 :)
I'm wondering if we should start a junk bin silver finds in the tracking section?

That is a great idea.
