Did someone say Aruba?


How about Netherlands Antilles?



I can help out a little with Trinidad and Tobago as well.

 

I have been looking forward to Guyana, but it seems like a shame to spend these coins. They're so pretty.

 

Or these either.

 

I'd hate to spend these in Trinidad and/or Tobago either.

 

The animals on the Guyana coins are extremely well-rendered.

 

Maybe I should just see how much I can get for 1 stiver and 4 pence.

 

I think I'll let you guys visit the islands. I'm going to visit Suriname.

 

One more for Suriname, but all I have for French Guiana is this worn 1818 10 centimes. I'd better wait for the rest of you to catch up with me.

 

I didn't have Trinidad and Tabago in my travel plans but here is some change if anyone needs it.

 

Curacao was also not one of my planned stops. A couple of 1948 coins.
My 2 1/2 cent piece seems to have been made a little off center on the reverse. Or is it the other way around?

 

On to Guyana



I will spend a little time here then head towards Suriname.

 

Guyana. I like the theme of this coin.



Suriname. My favorite place to go.

 

Suriname also spelled Surinam. Only a couple of coins.





Tomorrow we head to Brazil

 

Sounds great enjoy. Anyone wants to take a trip to Chile, I have a room for free.

 

Now in Brazil. Plans are to head West, cross the equator at Columbia, take a peek at Ecuador then head south across Peru towards Bolivia.



Have more than a few coins from Brazil, mostly current, but a few older examples to spend.

 

Might even spend this one.

 

I hope we can still exchange reis coins for cruzeiros.
