Hi, sparkla, welcome to the forum!
This is just a "Hi, how are you doing" thread. If you'd like to find out more info on your coins post them in the corresponding forums: maundy in British, Agrippa in Ancient, Mexican in World Coins, etc. If you could provide the pictures that would be even better. And it could be easier to discuss one coin at a time.
There are a lot of knowledgeable people here and they'll help you learn about your coins.

sparkla3 First of all welcome.

You have quite a list that covers a wide range of numismatic interest.

I am most interested in Spanish American and Mexican counterfeits but I dabble a bit in everything.

You need to post the coins one or two at a time with good pictures. That way we can make an educated evaluation. For instance, you have a coin simply listed as "Guatemala 4 real Pillar 1767" - that could be a $1 Chinese counterfeit or a $1000 mint state original. There is no way to tell.

Many of the coins on your list are of great interest to me and I am sure other forum members feel the same way. It could be a very valuable accumulation. Certainly it is worth the time and effort to find out.

Thank you for your reply. My dad collected coins during his travels to Central and South America during the 40's, 50' and 60's.
He traded with the locals and coin collectors also these are just some of the ones he had left and gave to me. I have one coin with a hole in it and another that had a hole and you can see that the hole was carefully filled with brass maybe? not sure. I guess it was common practice for the natives to string coins around their necks. The pillars do not have holes.
I will try to post photos soon I have them in my computer but this site will not let me upload for some reason.
