Nice lot!
I like the Canadian centennial cent with the dove.
I have the Philipinne 50 sentimo coin from 1983 that was in error concerning the spelling (yours is the corrected version):

In my best south of the border accent........
"We don't got no steeenking emoos, We got da Rhea!" ??? :o

Argentina has the Rhea, not to be confused with the emu or the ostrich. They probably taste as good though  ;D

o.0  We've got emu in Texas.  They ranch them here, for some stupid reason... and my car has bloody beak marks from an ostrich!

So.. Big, mean, flightless birds!

Do add this coin to my collection?
