Stopped in at the coin store and picked up these three specimens - all .900 silver and all are welcome additions to my collection.

Chile 1883 One Peso KM# 142.1

[BTW anybody ever see a Chile PnA24? if you collect US coins, you have seen that reverse before]

Phillipine 1909-S One Peso KM# 168 (looks like it was wiped a bit)

... and my favorite of the group...several other members have posted these before and I have been looking for a nice one that was priced right for a while.

very cool, thanks for sharing! I especially like the reverse of the Phillipine coin, with the eagle and shield, a nice design overall.

Nice pickup, nice coins-love the Panamanian gal; I always thought she looked a little like a 1920's flapper...

Ohhh I am very jealous! I have been looking for the top two myself, especially that Chilean piece. But they are not very common here for obvious reasons.

So I am stuck with internet shopping and it is not so easy to find nice ones that I want.

Panama sure got a good design for this coin.
