José Luis Orellana

José Orellana had had a passion for coins and banknotes from the age of 7, specifically for those from his country and Central America.

In 2001, the US dollar became the official currency in El Salvador, and the local currency (colón) inevitably disappeared. Thanks to this, many people all over the world wanted to buy colóns for collections or sell them locally and internationally.
