Move Over Lincoln

[DustDevilMarc]

Ok, I love to search through boxes of pennies. In today's penny box I found Chief Urraca, died 1531,who fought against the Spanish Conquistadors. Apparently he is somewhat of a hero in Panama. This is my first foreign non-Canadian coin from a role of pennies. What other non-Canadian foreign penny-sized coins have you found?

Nice! I've found a Bermudian penny the other day, it has a pig on it.

I found one of those last year. I have also found one from Bermuda, Barbados, Germany, and a 2 cent Euro.

My son found a Bahamian cent, similar to this.

Nice finds guys. I'm going to need to jump into pennies. In the few boxes I have so far, I've only been checking nickles, dimes and picked up my first box of quarters today.

Bahamas, Panama, and the 2 cent Euro... I can't think of any other penny-sized coins. I keep a lot of all my different foreign coin finds in the logs section.

British pennies, 2 Eurocents, Bermuda, Bahamas, Barbados, the list is endless. I think I have at least one coin from every continent I my search of penny rolls. I toss them into a beer growler.

That guys a heck of alot cooler than lincoln. This guy on this balboa cent is a real CENSORED.(I'm not using it as a swear word, it's not bad IMHO but if it's against T/net rules and you are offended by it I'll go back and remove it)

I am offended.

British pennies are a few millimeters bigger than us cents so I doubt you would find one in a roll

I've found many, but here are some of my favorites! Sorry for awful lighting. 1964 Republic of Columbia "diez centavos" (left), Trinidad "1 cent" piece(middle), 1975 Hong Kong "twenty cents" piece(right). Also, it seems a lot of England pennies show up around where I am. I have 7 of them in total.

I usually find the middle coin, from Trinidad and Tobago, in my dime rolls. I really like the hong kong one, I found a $2 coin from hong kong in a roll of halves before
