Although I think we may hit some territorial waters, we can get to Ecuador in a straight line from El Salvador . . . .

 

1960 Peru 20 centavos

 

I wanted to go to Bolivia but I am without. Brazil, here we come!

 

1965 Bolivia 50 centavos

 

Excellent! I wanted to visit Bolivia. Let's hit Chile next!

 

1993 Argentina 25 centavos

 

From Argentina to Uruguay.

I saved this 1942 Uruguay 1-peso from the melting pot.

 

1869 Brazil 10 reis

 

That's a KM 30? That puma's pretty! And Artigas is good looking guy (is it possible to see the obverse, please?). Why in the world would someone want to melt that coin?

 

From Brazil we go to South Africa. I don't have much from the African continent but I'd very much like to see what y'all got!

 

1893 ZAR 2 1-2 shillings. I have quite a few African coins and I especially like the old ZAR stuff.

 

I will now take us to Zimbabwe . . . please step carefully . . .

 

1960 Mozambique 10 centavos

 

Since we are now two stops away from South Africa I can take us back with this big guy that arrived this afternoon. Impressive size coin. I did not realize how big it was when I made the purchase.

 

5 Shillings is a crown, big ole coin! Here is a 2002 Namibia 1 dollar.

 

Angola

 

Stepping carefully to the north (1908-1960) we enter Belgian Congo.
Here is a Belgian Congo 1947 2 Francs:

 

Keep heading north to Sudan

 

1944 Ethiopia 5 Cent
