More Money



I'm pretty sure someone mentioned South African coins in a comment. So, I thought I'd post one. 
This coin was minted in 1977.





This coin is Finnish and was minted in 1981. This coin isn't very old, but I think it is rather interesting. Strange border, huh?

Yes, all of these coins belong to me. Most of them were donated by friends and family that know I like to collect odd things.
