Message:: [QUOTE="Bert Gedin, post: 3559103, member: 92556"]Thanks, CasualAg$, for the thorough details. But you mention one volcanoe, which you "knew" was volcanic. I've looked up Colombian volcanoes further, and though I realise there is far more information about them, what I found has been helpful, to me if not to anyone else. There are, allegedly, 16 volcanoes in Colombia, of which 15 are considered alive. They are all part of the northern Andes. Nevada del Ruiz erupted in 2012. Tolima last erupted in 1943. Major volcanoes of Colombia are =Nevada el Ruiz, Tolima, Huila, Purace, Dona Juana, Galeras. Whilst I can accept that the answer you have given may be correct, I would hazard an "educated guess" that more than one image of a volcanoe has appeared on banknotes and coins and, certainly, stamps. The latter have depicted Nevada del Ruiz.- Whilst I understand that language can be a problem, why not contact the Volcanic Ash Advisory Center, Washington ? You will already be aware that there is plenty of literature about volcanoes, Colombian and others. BTW, current status of Nevada del Ruiz is "restless"- and I can identify with that !!![/QUOTE]
