You will all be very pleased to know that both Cyprus & Malta are changing over to the Euro on New Year's Day.
Here is what the coins of these 2 countries,which are both British Commonwealth & E.U. member states,look like;

Here you go !
Voilà !
Not sure about the 3rd one (boat), I've been keeping them for over 20 years now.

Franky,those are all very common coins.The one with the ship is a 5 Mils of the Republic of Cyprus.It's a shame about the 1955 5 Mils,as that is munted.

The other side is worst, but for a 15 years old kid (at the time) they were all very cool

Franky,have you thought about putting photos of your coins up on
www.omnicoin.com ? You should take the coins out of the holders first before taking the photos.
There's a photo editing program called Irfanview,which you can download for FREE.It was created by a guy from Bosnia-Hercegovina.Type 'Irfanview' into
www.google.ca ,& you can find the link.

I'm going to take a look, but I'm not sure if I will remove my coins from the holder, I have a 3inch binder of those.

Franky,you can download Irfanview from here;
www.irfanview.com/main_download_engl.htm .
I'm sure that you could use it for editing your coin photos.
