Volcanoes on banknotes and coins

It might be neat to create a resource list of coins and banknotes that have different themes, in this thread specifically, of volcanoes. On my Youtube channel: Numismatic Notes with Benjamin, I have created a short video with just a small bit of the volcanic notes that exist. It might be a great resource to have a list of this numismatic theme to prepare exhibits or use as a source list.

Please add volcanic notes and coins here and on my Youtube channel.

Thanks.

Many Philippines coins feature a picture of a volcano, e.g. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces1009.html

Hi.
I am fascinated by the name ,, Popocatepetl ,, The Mexican volcano is the motif of many coins:

Do you want real volcanoes or the God Vulcan is also interesting for you?

The tag volcanoe does not exist in our list. You might want to ask for it.

One on the arms of Ecuador on a 2 Sucres coin of 1944:

Hi! The American Series (1903-1936), Commonwealth Series (1937-1945), and English Series (1958-1966) of Philippine coins all have Mayon Volcano in the background. (The obverse is quite similar anyway across these coins so don't bother looking at all of them one by one.)

On the other hand, the reverse of two of the country's current circulating banknotes also feature volcanoes, namely (the recently erupted) Taal Volcano on the PHP 50 bill and Mayon Volcano on the PHP 100 bill.
