Juan Pablo and his European adventures.

The fairy that visited us was a lovely gentlefairy by the name of Juan Pablo.  I told K that we employ the Fairy Union that is an equal opportunity employer.  We have males.  We have females.  I explained to her that she is one of the few children that are given foreign coin.

Foreign coin?

Well, you see, our Tooth Fairy Union members travel internationally.  They've got a lot of ground to cover, so they must be of most excellent flying skills.

Juan Pablo had dropped 5 different Lira and a coin from Spain.  I explained to K that though Juan Pablo knew that the Lira no longer held a monetary value in Italy, that he thought that she could appreciate it and enjoy it as foreign coin.  JP bounced through Europe on this way through to K.  He wanted to leave her something special because he knew that she just had 6 teeth yanked all at once.

Can I tell you how much she enjoys getting the foreign coins from the fairies?

Her tooth fairy haul overall?  5 Lira, 1 Spanish coin and $6 American dollars.  (1 for each tooth.)

The Tooth Fairy needs you! Foreign coin ID, please.

Our tooth fairy is an international traveler.  As such, she leaves K- foreign coin when she flies by for a tooth pick-up.  These coins were earned by the tooth fairy with a little help from a friend's mom that works at a zoo.  The zoo's fountain gets filled with coins and some of it is foreign.  Since I try to help the tooth fairy out from time to time, I've been put to task to identify the country of origin of these coins before the tooth fairy distributes them to K- for her lost teeth.

HELP!

1.  Says something to the effect of Confederatio Helvetica.-- SWITZERLAND!
2.  Looks potentially Russian.
3.  and 5.  Looks potentially Russian. 
4.  Says Deutschland on it. -- GERMANY!

She's gotten a Euro, money from Turkey and pence from Scotland.  With the snaggle toothy front tooth that is twisting and just dangling there (I've encouraged her to pull it, but nope), she'll be enjoying some money from Panama.  I also have money from the Bahamas. 

Lend a hand to the tooth fairy, will you?  Thanks!

Aunt Donna update:  She had a mammogram which labeled the spot on her breast as a "mass" and it needs biopsied.  Though she was originally denied surgery for the rectal tumor, she now is cleared by the cardiologist.  (Calcium deposits on her heart.)  She has a spot on her lung, but goodness knows what that is.  Honestly, it sounds as if she has the small cell lymphoma that my grandma had and it has cropped up in several places.  I know that they said that the colon bit is precancerous, but other things have cropped up and it doesn't seem like dots are connecting to me.  Her request is that we pray God's will for her life.  She is a Christian and said that she is good with whatever God's will has for her.  Bless her calcium deposited heart.

ETA:  The dangling tooth de-dangled while I was out visiting with my aunt.  K- was so thrilled that she gave me a call to let me know.
