    I honestly have any pieces that would cheer you up. You have quality coins that not anyone can hold a torch to. But, I really wish you the best and offer only good Karma to you. If I come across anything that could stand to compare, I will in a heartbeat. Maybe I can come up with something that is different though! image -Dan

    I've got basically one South American coin, and it's a common piece from Ecuador, so I won't repost it here again.

    All my best wishes as you go through this.

    Stay strong Gary. No South American I'm afraid but I'll share a desktop background I was working on, in the hopes it might cheer you up a bit:

    I thought I had an Argentine medal around somewhere but its still hiding from me. I'll keep rummaging.

    In any case, I do know (second hand from my wife) draining and difficult chemo can be. All my best wishes and here's hoping that you're out chasing down more of them south american round disks real soon!

    Unfortunately, I have no South American coinage to post, but I did stumble across an interesting listing on ebay that combines both of our interests, South America and Philippines.
