What do you do with foreign coins that end up in your wallet?   

I normally just toss them out. But,since I have some bills in my scrap book taht come from other places I feel I would now hold on to any coins I will get . Plus if you check ebay they sell really well.

i keep those coins in my box in a room. i have a collection of sort but these are just few coins from different countries, given by friend. not much though. since i keep them in the box, no way these coins will end up in my wallet.

I keep a collection of foreign coins. I don't try pass them onto a store or anything like that because you have a big chance of being caught. I don't mind picking up foreign coins from time to time because I can add them to my collection

When I was employed as a cashier, I often received foreign coins. Sometimes the customer forgot they had it. Out of courtesy we would accept them and take them to the bank. Personally, nothing like that turns up in my pocket or wallet. If it does, I will dispose of it properly :)

hi! well, I don't have any foreign coins/ in my wallet that often, but when I have some, maybe from the cashier in the store who have given it to me by mistake, i just keep them in it, because I just can't spend them nowhere because in the bank they accept only banknotes and in the stores/shops too :)

I usually keep them until I decide that it's silly because I'm never going to go exchange them, so I toss 'em. I know it seems like a waste of money, but it's just not worth driving to somewhere that I can exchange it for only a few cents, or dollars at best.

I usually just keep it and add it to my coin collection. I'm not really an avid collector but just collect it for fun.

I save them for when my daughter gets to be a bit older. Some of the coins I've collected predate the 1900s. I've had 10 cent pieces smaller than my pinky nail, and I've had 1 cent pieces the size of a small tarantula. I'll study them, hold them.. get a feel for them, and wonder about those places as I know that many of them I will never visit.

I've had a Nazi coin once, and I had to stop and think about the Holocaust for a bit. The price that some people had to pay... who held that coin before I did and how did it end up in America? Sometimes when my friends travel, they collect coins and other odd things for me and send them. I have some lira pieces that appear to have Braille on them. I had to stop and ponder why America hasn't done such. I have coins and currency from the Bahamas, Panama, Mexico, Guatamala, the old Soviet Union, Sweden, The Netherlands, Germany, Canada, Belize, Belgium, Austria, Australia, Ireland, the UK, various Carribean Islands. I have one that is from an Asian country that I cannot identify.

I keep them in a special box for my daughter so that she might have a memory of how the world once was and to help spark an interest in her for history and other cultures. Even now, she asks me to bring them out from time to time to allow her to examine them and asks questions.

I put all my foreign coins in a cup. I keep them as a collection as to where I have been. They remind me of all the beautiful places I have been. Hoping to return one day. Maybe I can spend them again .Happy Lotting. Yeah and those cashier always seem to notice. I guess they have built in radars for them.

My mom's japanese and my dad's canadian. I have family in both their countries, so I've gone to visit a couple times and I have quite a few coins left over. I have always had this designated box (a jewelry box-type of box) that was my "coin box." I just saved them in there until the next time I visisted.
Now being in college, and amid moving out, I don;t think I'll be going back any time soon. I guess you and I could either just let the coins sit, or give them to a friend who might be visiting that country. :o
