Found a new 'Post your' topic while going through some old coins. Looks like a number of 'Rim of Fire' countries like Japan and the Philippines depict volcanos on their coins. I'll start off this thread with these coins from the Philippines, interesting with USA eagle/shield combos on the opposite sides: 1904 1/2 Centavo, Bronze 1945 5 Centavos, Brass 1919 1 Centavo, Bronze   |

Makes sense that Chile would have volcanos on their currency at some point, not so much on their present coinage/banknotes. I was in the country for 5 months with their navy and there's plenty of volcanos here and there.

@ Diverdude
If you choose to add * Mountains * to the main title ,be free to ask to the Mods .. This way it will be a more complete theme.

Adding another denomination to the US-Philippines coins previously posted... Here's a silver One Peso which includes Mt. Mayon in the background on its reverse.   Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems. All rights reserved.

Hey JBuck, sure, might as well add 'Mountains' to the thread. Commems, that's an awesome coin, I'll have to keep an eye out for one for my collection.
