Received a package today from SPEEDracer.

I won a contest that he had and I just received the package today. All of the coins are from Iraq which is where he is currently living. I have not gone through and figured out what the coins are dated yet. He did send a piece of paper telling how to tell what each date is but you can tell me if you want to.image Here are the pics of all 9 coins that he sent. Thanks for the package, Eric.image

  • CoinAddict,
    I'm glad that you enjoyed your package. If anyone would be interested in trading for the same set, please let me know. I just started to collect again when I came to Iraq...something to pass my time...when I have any. When I was a kid I collected strictly Lightside...but traveling around the world has pulled me into the DARKSIDE. So if you do want to trade i'm trying to get at least one coin from every country in the world. Trust me, I have a long way to go. And CoinAddict, your welcome.

    That is indeed a nice batch. I like the palm tree pattern.
