Just a few regular world coins from my old box - Nothing too fancy :)

Hi,
I was feeling nostalgic tonight and decided to go through my old childhood collection of world coins again. Nothing super high grade or rare; nonetheless, they were a treasure to me back in the late 60's and early 70's. Here are a few of the ones that look the most interesting to me today. Forgive the low quality of the pictures, the coins are still in the faded hazy 2X2's that I put them in back then. Thanks for looking image

    I think their language is called Tagalog? (Sorta like "tagalong" without the "n").

    Thanks for the compliments. I have fun when I make these kinds of backgrounds. I also noticed that I forgot to post one of the pictures that I also took yesterday, so here it is image
