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!
