Look what I found!
I was trying to put a coin in the soda machine and it kept falling out so I looked at it and here it is. I did a search on Google and it was from Saudi Arbia (saber and palm dead give away). I have a stash of foreign coins (not much worth) and thought just the other day how I had no coins from the Middle East and somehow I got this coin. Maybe from the doughnut shop yesterday, but I'm not sure.

1. Very cool
I love foreign currency. I have a few pieces, also some paper money from here and there. Nothing from the Middle East, though.

My dad was in the Navy in the late 40's - he used to have a little can that was full of coins from all over the world. I wonder if he still has it - I'd love to inherit it. Not worth anything, I'm sure, but very interesting.

2. Neat!
It's pretty cool to get a chance to look at foreign currencies... all the stuff I have is from Europe, though! Boring ;) That's a neat 10 whatever it is that you've got there!
