Recently I discovered a friend of mine collected foreign stamps, while I prefer to collect coins. Once upon a time I had bought lots of foreign stamps, but had been trying to sell them for years at yard sales with no luck. As it turned out the friend had collected foreign coins that he no longer wanted. So we traded! Both of us ended up very happy with what we got.
Here are some of the unique coins now in my collection.

British coins are easy to identify. The fun part was seeing the different monarchs on the heads sides of the coins. Also, I also wonder about the coins from 1939-1945 that survived World War II. I wonder whose hands they were in at that time.

When we traded coins I never expected to get coins from the 18th Century. These coins have certainly seen a lot of history having been around before the sinking of the Titanic and World War I.
I hope you enjoy these. Later I will post more coins from other countries.
