Ecuador Penny Set Combo

Through some International negotiation we have secured sets of coins from FIVE different penny smashing machines in Ecuador. We had no choice, but to have the coins rolled on zincers, but the designs are very clean. This is a very rare opportunity to have 5 sets come to you all in one shot. It is a must have for the avid collector or a great gift idea!

Read the description of these coins from their designer:

The Republic of Ecuador is in South America bordered by Colombia on the north, by Peru on the east and south, and by the Pacific Ocean on the west. The country also includes the Galapagos Islands in the Pacific, about 600 miles west of the mainland. Ecuador straddles the equator, from which it takes its name. Guayaquil is the largest and the most populous city in Ecuador, as well as that nation's main port. There we have five machines - 3 of them located in “The Malecon 2000” and 2 in the Malecon del Salado, both places are atrractions of the city.
