I need you guys to help me to identify these Mexicana coins. I think this one is from Guatemala. If this coin could tell story, for sure I would like to hear that, since my dad bought it in Indonesia. The Dutch brought them to Ned Indie, the Chinese merchants counter mark it. See the stamp in the middle of the coin (hat), at 5 o'clock and above the eagle on 12 o'clock. I am getting close to been able to sell to this forum. I have no idea what this one will sell. Could somebody help me for grade and price? Thinking to give our member fair first shot than ebay + 10%. Many more will follow, since I have to scan it one by one.

Here is the other one. I think this one Venezuela (Z)? It has one horizontal T and Chinese cash chop on 12 o'clock and "ant" on 5 o'clock. Reverse, an O and dot at 12 o'clock, another O on the beak, a cross under the tail and a "Z" under the cactus. Another dot and Chinese chop on 9 o'clock. Definitively this coin has many stories.

This one didn't have many stories to tell. There are only two Chinese chops on reverse 11 and 12 o'clock. Definitively did a long journey to the Orient.

Sorry Coinaholic, I was busy uploading, I haven't read it until now. I got dizzy now, let me recap them:
Go is Guanajuato or Guadalajara. Z is Zacatecas Mo is Mexico. Ca is probably Chihuahua or Culiacan.
Many more coming.
