    I've recently taken an interest in coins from Central and South America. I don't really see anyone talking about these, but there's a lot of really neat designs. In particular I like Guatemala. Here are a few of its modern issues.

    And here is the 25 centavos and 1 quetzal. The 1 quetzal in particular is beautiful.

    I love Central/South American coins. Would you like to add a few older ones to your collection? I have a bunch of extras that I would normally just throw into a larger lot. Just PM me a mailing address and I'll send them out Monday.
    No charge of course.
