Don't let the picture fool you, a quarter-pound of coins is much less than what it shows. That being said, I'm well pleased with what I got, though many of the coins were various denominations of pesos, there were also coins from France, Portugal, and even the Bahamas. All in all, it's a nice boost for a biginning collector like myself

5.0 out of 5 stars Seems to kind of be the luck of the draw, February 15, 2012

I've heard that a lot of people get many different types of Pesos, but I didn't, I think I got 3 that were Pesos and about 24 altogether. I've ordered a similar product before and didn't get any Pesos that time, so it kind of seems to be the luck of the draw. Over all I was pretty satisfied with what I got. I'd actually like to know if they'd do combined shipping if you order more than one package, but if not, I guess you could always order the pound of coins. I got some coins from Italy, France, Ireland, Israel, the Philippines, Mexico, Australia, Jamaica, England, Argentina, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, and there are some I can't read, I think they are of Chinese, Japanese, and Russian origin, but I'm not entirely sure. I can't say as to the rarity of them at all, but I think they're really cool because they've been around the world even if I haven't...yet :) Anyway, not all of the coins are in the best condition, but they aren't advertised as mint, so no one should expect that, but I have found at least one coin from the 1950's that is very shiny like it was just put into circulation even though it's been out of circulation for some time. I thought that was pretty neat. Plus as a caution to anyone who thinks you are going to get a ton of rare or expensive coins, besides the fact that you get what you pay for, also, most of those 'rare' coins aren't worth as much unlike if they were minted. But I think this is an awesome collection and fun to go through just to try and figure out where all the coins come from. I go through them as soon as I get them to figure out where they come from and feel kind of sad when the small journey is over, so over all, it's fun, but don't expect to turn around and sell them for thousands of dollars or anything. That way, if it does happen, that will make it even more special :)

I recieved my bag of coins today and was thrilled with what was inside. Half of the coins left me staring because I couldn't tell what country they were from but I could tell one was from Russia, Canada and Jamacia. This item is great for kids and beginning coin colectors. Well, ill have to admit that one or two of the coins were actually black and in poor condition. But other then that, it was the best item especially since I am a beginnning coin collector. My first coin was just a large silver euro from France that I 'traded' a 'rare' 1972 penny for. It is now the oldest coin I have and I am proud to have added more to my colllection.
I dont care what the other reviews said but I recieved NO duplicates nor was my bag torn in any way.
