I just had to take a picture before I got started.

Wow! After your 40 hour week sorting these, please let us in on the final tally.

Ha. Hey, it's not work if it's fun... right? guys?!

Oh, I agree 100% ! Lets see... snake tampons that are clogging a sewer or sort coins that teach me history, geography, and math as well as being super cool to touch and own. The decision is....

Probably out there somewhere.

I'll take coins with snakes on them.

Wow, that looks like fun. You know you're in for it when you can see silver right off the bat. I'll be curious to see what you find in there.
4
I'll definitely be reporting in. Yay for silver.
3
I would love to go through all those.

I see plenty of silver in there, and a bitch of exchange as well.
3
Oh boy, what a haul! That would be a lot of fun to go through!

You and I have something in common
Wanna do some trades? I am collecting one from every country. Then I have a special set where I put aside the more valuable finds.

I am just getting started on foreign currency so I've a lot to learn. I have a lot to get through, but trading sounds great. I'll have a list at some point of every country.
Are there any places you're focusing on currently? There isn't much from Africa or south America here, but a good bit from southeast Asia and Europe.

Ya check this out. I made a little chart: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2XPN9ByFnPmN3JtYllWS3JJWXM/edit?usp=sharing
If green I have it, if red I do not.
The yellow is not part of the standard set I guess. Cause they are more-so unavailable I guess. The normal white countries are the contemporary stuff.

I definitely have a handful of your reds in this mess. Hopefully it'll be organized soon.
Are you going for any single coin from every nation or a particular coin?
2
Nope! That's what makes this a little more doable! I like the ones that are a little more interesting in shape in design, but it isn't important.
Happy cake day!

How is it going with this friend?!
2
Hey! I know it took me a long time to reply, sorry about that.
I actually had to pack up all my things and move. I'm staying with someone and don't have room to unpack my stuff. It's an inconvenience, but I haven't forgot about this. I've got this post saved because I know I'll be coming back.
2
No worries. I'll be curious with what comes out of this.

I submitted this post a few days ago about a batch of U.S. coins I sorted and was very happy with the community and response. I was about to start on these and thought r/coins would appreciate the calm before the storm.
looks like youll be busy
Oh, man! That's a great bunch of coins. You must have a really good source.
