Featuring complete coin descriptions and nearly 20,000 actual-size illustrations to assist in coin identification, the new edition is a perfect reference for beginner to expert collectors alike, as well as coin traders and dealers interested in circulating coins found around the world. Each coin listing includes dates, mintmarks, mintages, metal content (with weight and diameter in many cases) of issue, and current value. Collecting World Coins is designed to offer a focused approach to world coin collecting. No commemoratives, sets or special issues are included in the catalog. The scope of this volume embraces issues since 1901 circulated by nations around the globe. What you will not find listed are coin issues expressly created for non-monetary purposes including limited issue commemoratives coins. You will, however, find some gold issues, as prior to World War II many were produced to serve circulating monetary needs. The goal of this volume, then, is to provide users with accurate, reliable and instructive information on 20th and 21st century monetary issue coins – coins of great historical value reflected by the people, events and symbols emblazoned on them.

It would change history and affect our world today. Whether or not that document was the original Magna Carta is a matter for historians to bicker over. The reining-in of the absolute powers of a monarch 800 years ago is an event being commemorated today. The Royal Australian Mint has already issued a 20-cent coin to mark the historic occasion as reported in the May issue. It has now followed with release of a rectangular (40 x 28 mm) .999 fine antiqued silver $5. Obverse shows Queen Elizabeth II. The reverse design by Aaron Baggio shows King John’s Great Seal and an inscription taken from the 1297 Inspeximus version, which is housed today in Australia’s Parliament House. Mintage is 10,000.

Sottini Life Member #5909 Cary, NC 27512-5665 www.worldcoinnews.net / July 2015 11 Around the World RICHARD GIEDROYC Technology may spur coin production A major reason higher denomination coins have in recent years become popular in most of the industrialized world is that the coins cost less than do like-denomination bank notes when you compare the life expectancy of each. In some situations it may cost more to manufacture the coin than the bank note. Statistics show a circulating higher denomination coin such as that with the value of a dollar or pound will circulate for 20 to 40 years while its bank note counterpart will last for between 12 and 18 months. The potential problem for such higher denomination circulating coins including the British pound, Canada $2, European Union 2 euro, Japanese 500 yen, and many more is that these values make them attractive to counterfeiters. Great Britain is currently redesigning its £1 coin for this reason. Even higher denomination coins may soon be on the horizon now that Germany has perfected a coin composed not of metal, but of polymer. The introductory example is a commemorate tri-material composition Plante Erde or Planet Earth 5-euro coin on which a narrow blue ring separates a map of the earth at the center from a ring representing the universe. Polymer bank notes have been increasingly replacing paper bank notes in recent years due to both their durability and their ability to challenge counterfeiters. The counterfeit prevention potential of the polymer coins is an added security feature that could encourage countries to issue coins for circulation in higher denominations currently reserved for bank notes. Counterfeiting prevention is a prerequisite if a nation is to introduce coins of higher value than are those now in circulation. Considering the difference in manufacturing costs the higher denomination coins are attractive if this goal is to be realized. The new technology was developed by Director of the State Mint of Baden-Wuerttemberg Dr. Peter Huber, Director of the Bavarian State Mint Günther Waadt, German Central Bank or Bundesbank representatives, the European Vending Association, and Saxonia, a coin blank producer. Technological assistance was provided by the Leipniz Institute of RWTH Aachen University. The group determined polymer can be struck into a coin. The new technology is chemically resistant and resistant to heat and cold. It is also resistant to ultraviolet radiation and to water. The German Ministry of Finance explained a commemorative was appropriate to be the first tri-material polymer coin as the ministry’s focus was “to capture the interest especially of young target groups for German collector coins.” An editorial appearing in the May 7 Internet news publication CoinsWeekly.com stated, “…this commemorative coin is not just a commemorative coin but a milestone in the development of minting technology. There is a good chance that the tri-material coin, as this innovation is often called, will spread as quickly as the bimetal coin that has become an integral part of modern coinage.” Coin and counterfeit prevention technology has progressed over the centuries, often slowly. The design on English medieval pennies was changed to depict a long cross rather than a short cross on the reverse in an effort to discourage clipping by making clipping more obvious. The reeded edge so often seen on modern coins began as an additional way to discourage clipping. This was followed by edge lettering, which made counterfeiting even more difficult. Different metals including the aureate-nickel used to make the Canada dollar coin are meant to make the coin color distinctive while discouraging counterfeiting. Ringed bimetal and trimetal coins first popularized by Italy during the 1980s quickly followed. Today there are coins that incorporate hologram-like devices, micro-printing, or are color enhanced in an effort to deter counterfeiting. The next generation of the British £1 coin will incorporate several of these technologies. The new coin will be a 12-sided bimetal product with lettered edge. Germany revives silver commemoratives Grimms’ fairy tales are truly grim. Imagine the tale of Little Red Riding Hood, in which an old woman and a young child are eaten by a wolf, then rescued by a huntsman before the wolf can digest them! This grim tale will have a happy ending for German coin collectors. The German Ministry of Finance recently announced coins featuring the story will be issued in January 2016 comprised of 0.925 fine or sterling silver. In 2011 the finance ministry ignored the warnings of associations representing both coin dealers and collectors, deciding instead to retain the same face value of all future commemorative 12 World Coin News / July 2015 coins but change their metal composition from silver to copper-nickel. The alternative that was rejected at the time was to raise the face value of the commemoratives while retaining their silver composition. Declining demand for new commemorative coin issues appears to have been the determining factor in the recent reversal announced by the finance ministry. The 2016 coins will be issued in the denomination of 20 euros, a significantly higher face value than is any circulating European Union coin. Information was not immediately available regarding if these would be ringed bimetal coins with a silver central plug or all-silver coins. The EU circulating 1- and 2-euro coins, the highest denomination coins in circulation, are both base metal composition ringed bimetal issues. The announced plans call for silver commemoratives to be struck both in Proof and in Uncirculated, with the Uncirculated versions available at face value at banks in Germany. This, of course, assumes the price of silver doesn’t increase beyond the face value of the coins.

Image courtesy of Stack’s. Hettger/from Page 1 Nationale de France in Paris, Dr. Duryat’s illustrated her lecture with the earliest coins and pieces of silver. Hacksilber or small pieces of silver were used in international trade with Tyrean royal purple dyes, renowned for color and beauty. Wine was also another important product for sale and transport. Foreign coins of Thrace and Macedonia have been uncovered in the Tyre area. The earliest coin discussed was Tyre’s 5th century B.C.E. silver shekel with a dolphin jumping over a wave, shell below and an owl on the reverse, curiously the same symbol as on coins of Athens. A 4th century B.C.E. silver shekel coin depicts the god Melqarth on a winged horse described by Dr. Duryat, but in actuality a mythological creature, known as a hippocamp, as it has a tail of a fish. This design according to Dr. Duryat indicates “power on land and sea.” The rise of Greek power under Alexander the Great proved Tyre the weaker state, although it held out for six months through a siege in 332 B.C.E., the city being razed to the ground. According to the International Association to Save Tyre, 80 percent of the city still remains to be excavated. Who knows what treasures lay beneath the surface? In 126 B.C.E. Tyre became an autonomous city. The famous silver tetradrachms were struck with the laureate head of Melqarth on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. Often it is remembered as most likely used as the “Thirty Pieces of Silver” as mentioned in the Bible. Tyre is a memorable and remarkable city and the symposium brought it to life. 14 World Coin News / July 2015 A rare Queen Victoria silver pattern rupee of 1861 struck at Calcutta (Pr-51, KM-Pn44) will be offered for sale in July. In gEF it carries an estimate of £3,500-4,500. Image courtesy © Spink, London. Extremely rare East India Company, Bombay Presidency 1832/AH1246 proof copper half anna (Pr-204, KM-250). It will go to the block with an estimate of £2,500-3,500. Image courtesy © Spink, London. Those hooked on the coins of British India will be glued to their computer screens, telephones, or auction room chairs on July 15. Spink’s London sale of Ancient, British and Foreign Coins and Commemorative Medals is set to offer two 19th century Indian rarities. First up is a Queen Victoria silver pattern rupee of 1861 struck at Calcutta. Of the five 1861 rupee patterns given in Pridmore and the Standard Catalog of World Coins this one shows a trace of the designer’s name “L C WYON” below the bust. On the reverse the top flower within the wreath rises from two bracts. This then is an example of Pr-51 or KM-Pn44. All 1861 rupees are patterns. None was issued for circulation. Although Wyon designed the dies they failed to meet the technical requirements of the Indian mints. New ones were prepared at the Calcutta mint using Wyon’s punches but had to be partially re-engraved. The second gem comes from the Bombay Presidency of the East India Company: a copper proof half anna dated 1832/AH1246 in EF (Pr-204, KM-250). The obverse shows the arms of the East India Company, the reverse the scales of justice. The new Bombay mint began striking copper coins on Nov. 22, 1830. Half annas were one of the denominations authorized and a die was ordered in 1832 from a local engraver. In 1833 the mint received the die and produced proofs. These were apparently deemed unsatisfactory and a new matrix die was engraved at the Calcutta mint and sent to Bombay. Eventually it was used to strike copper half annas for circulation at Bombay in 1834. The 1832 half anna in the sale was found in the cabinet of a British collector. Quite how it got there from Bombay is unknown.

I suspect you will have the most success e-mailing me, however. I save all e-mails as “new” until dealt with. If I am on the road (at Her Majesty’s sufferance) I will collect my e-mails when I return. 1650, mostly over 50. I will not be using my “better” boxes of modern material for the next six weeks, so why not give a glimpse of my show stock to those who don’t get to see me in person? BTW, I will be doing a decent size show in Colorado Springs during this period, but it immediately follows my teaching the ANA Summer Seminar course in medieval coins so I am bringing mostly pre-1650 coins for that one.

The Danish government recently announced that it plans to make it legal beginning in 2016 for businesses to refuse accepting payments in cash. It would take an act of Denmark’s Parliament to do so. The British newspaper The Telegraph took a jaundice view of the suggestion, stating in its May 9 issue: “The proposal is part of a pre-election package of economic growth measures aimed at reducing costs and increasing productivity for businesses.” Perhaps the announcement is a political ploy aimed more at increasing votes rather than business productivity, but nevertheless the suggestion is likely to be taken seriously in a nation where it is common to use debit or credit cards even for small transactions. Doctors, dentists, grocers, post offices, and prescription drug merchants would still be required to accept cash where necessary. Nothing was addressed regarding checks. About a third of Danes use a smartphone application called MobilPay. MobilPay can be used to transfer money between phones or to a merchant. Denmark, Finland, and Sweden lead the European Union in the use of credit card payments per individual. The continuing march towards a cashless society is not altruistic or simply due to Denmark having a superior grasp of cutting edge technology than other countries. MobilPay is owned by Danske Bank, the largest bank in the country. Danske Bank links their app to NemID, a digital signature link to a national number assigned to each individual. Finansraadet is a financial institution lobby group in Denmark’s Parliament. According to Finansraadet’s arguments, going cashless would save merchants money through better security and less need to spend time and money handling physical currency. As The Telegraph article points out, a complete move to elec- tronic payments may increase the risk of fraud. The number of fraud cases associated with electronic payments has doubled in Sweden within the past 10 years. In the United States identity, credit card, and bank account thefts through computer hacking have been grabbing headlines in recent years. Some of the accused hackers may be as far away as China or Russia. Even Microsoft founder Bill Gates has become a supporter of Denmark’s evolving move towards a cashless society. Gates has argued a cashless society will encourage banks to provide services to the world’s poorest people due to low marginal costs. If the number of check cashing and pay day loan companies in the United States are any indication, it appears even among people of modest means significant numbers of them have already demonstrated they forego the use of bank accounts. Carl-Ludwig Thiele is a German central banker who openly opposes Denmark’s “your cash is not welcome here” approach. Thiele has in the past used economic data to argue his point. He has also argued freedom of choice is a better alternative. Recently Thiele has been quoting famed 19th century Russian novelist Fyodor Dostoyevsky when arguing the case for coins and bank notes rather than electronic transfers exclusively. Thiele quoted Dostoyevsky as writing, “Each person chooses the instruments that best meets the requirements in their eyes. Money is coined liberty.” Thiele added his own comments, saying: “Abolishing cash would hurt consumer sovereignty—the free choice of citizens about their payment instruments. Government agencies do not have the right to tell citizens how they should pay.” According to Thiele, cash still represents 80 percent of all transactions, with that cash representing 53 percent of the value of all exchanges. Money truly can be coined liberty in the sense that cash is not able to be tracked by governments the same way as can electronic transfers. In the United States the government requires banks to report all cash transactions of $10,000 or more for that reason. Uganda 50-shilling coin’s future in question Uganda’s economy has gone through a lot since the time of the regime of the now late President (“President for Life”) Idi Amin. Uganda’s shilling currency system has depreciated 99.8 percent throughout the past 44 years, according to statistics published in the May 4 issue of the publication New Vision. This includes the 66 percent devaluation imposed on the shilling in 1987 to help stabilize the economy. The US dollar was pegged at 7.14 shillings between 1971 and 1975. It was during this time, in 1971, that Amin introduced the 50-shilling coin. Today the Bank of Uganda counts the coin as one of eight coin denominations officially in use. The central bank web site identifies the 1-, 2-, 5-, 10-, 50-, 100-, 200-, and 500-shil18 World Coin News / July 2015 ling coins as being current alongside five higher denomination bank notes. According to the website, “Low denomination coins are important in retail transactions because they enable retailers to calculate prices in a more exact manner. The buyer is able to pay the precise amount quoted by the retailer.” Amin’s legacy is one to be forgotten. Then U.S. President Richard Nixon once spoke of Amin as “that (explicate) cannibal!” It now appears Amin’s 50-shilling coin denomination may be a pox on those unfortunate enough hold it. None of the coin denominations of 50 shillings value or lower has been officially withdrawn, but due to their purchasing power these denominations are seldom used. It is the lowly 50-shilling coin, how- ever, that drew the attention of the Ugandan publication New Vision on May 4. According to the New Vision article, “Lawrence Bategeka, an economist says the current trend of shunning the 50-shilling coin shows that the public is challenging its use as legal tender. He says it does not make sense to carry many bulky 50-shilling coins to buy a loaf of bread as it inconvenient.” Bategeka is quoted as saying, “If the price structure has changed such that the 50-shilling coin has been rendered useless, and one has to combine two coins to buy the smallest thing then the central bank should recall the 50-shilling coin and abolish [it] altogether.” Bategeka continues, “The coin must be relevant and it should be convenient to Uganda/Page 21 Around the World RICHARD GIEDROYC Secret files could impact coin collections A so-called German ‘research project’ with the ominous title ILLICID may on the surface be meant to fight the illicit trade in antiquities, but in fact it could and possibly is planned to be used for much more. The Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation announced the project through a press release in early May. The foundation is collaborating with the Fraunhofer Institute for Secure Information Technology and the Leipniz Institute for Social Sciences. The project includes a secret file that might store information on just about anything regarding antiquity sales. Martin Steinebach is a doctor of engineering and heads that department at the Fraunhofer Institute for Secure Information Technology. According to a statement made by Steinebach, she is responsible for uploading data from suspicious auctions for the benefit of “archaeologists or investigators from authorities” as “part of a portal that brings investigators and experts together. How the investigators deal with the assessment of the experts will be seen over the course of the project.” Interpret all this as you like, but the “experts” of which Steinebach speaks is defined as being the German police, customs officials, and members of public authorities with a supervisory mandate. No definition of what might be deemed as suspicious has been offered. Although the intention appears to be flushing out antiquities that have been illegally brought into Germany to be sold, coins could easily be included in this secret file. No numismatist or person with an understanding of coins or the coin trade is included in the definition of an expert. Professor Markus Hilgert is the coordinator of the project. According to Hilger, “In the light of Resolution 2199 of the U.N. Security Council from Feb. 15, the project has again become increasingly urgent and important. In requesting all member states to take measures against the illicit trade in cultural property from Iraq and Syria, it stresses how important it is to lay the scientific groundwork for such measures in Germany.” Not everyone agrees. The International Association of Dealers in Ancient Art released a statement Nov. 27, 2014, in which the organization says, “Exhaustive investigation has revealed that the most important sources of the allegation the trade in ancient objects would finance IS[IS] are not existing. IADAA is summarizing the latest state of knowledge. In our press release of Oct. 21, 2014, we pointed out that the validity of the facts and figures presented in the suggestive broadcast Das geplunderte Erbe (which have been adopted by many media) of the German trade in ancient art being involved in funding ISIS are extremely unlikely. During the last week, two articles have been published by independent parties supporting our point of view, one from Suddeutsche Zeitung [newspaper], the other the blog ‘Chasing Aphroditeâ.’” ILLICID is being funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research as part of the Research for Civil Security II program. The funding is set at 1.2 million euros (about $1.32 million U.S.) for “Civil Security—Protection Against Organized Crime.” The terrorist organization ISIS, which at the time this article is being written is in control of portions of Syria and Iraq, has been accused of selling antiquities and possibly coins looted from areas they control to help raise funds for the group. United Nations Resolution 2199 is specific, however good intentions have evolved into something unintended before. The ILLICID project could easily be used to track all antiquity transactions in Germany, including all transactions in the coin trade. The data at some later date could be used for any purpose. In the United States the National Security Agency now has more than 12 times the amount of information as is the information stored in the Library of Congress. Other countries, including the United States, might follow the German example with more exuberance than is in the spirit of the resolution. The US Department of State’s Cultural Property Advisory Committee has been influencing policies covering the trade in antiquities, including coins, in the United States. It is likely the committee will examine the example set by ILLICID. Has Belgium met its Waterloo? In recent years coins have been issued on which maps suggest the boundaries of a nation may have been overstated at the expense of the boundaries of its neighbors. The coin designs were protested, but the coins were issued anyway. These are popular coins that have been gobbled up by collectors. The more recent attempt by Belgium to issue a commemorative 2 euro coin marking the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo which ended Napoleon’s rule in France hit a land mine when France man- aged to prevent its issuance. The French government protested to European Union officials that the coin “appears prejudicial, in a context where the governments of the eurozone are trying to strengthen unity and cooperation throughout the monetary union.” This lame excuse may appear to be ridiculous, but remember this is the same EU government that has regulated the curvature of cucumbers and the containers in which olive oil is served in restaurants. The currency union may unite the currencies of most EU members, but each still retains its own financial policy and political agenda. Belgian Royal Mint Assistant Manager Andre A. Toujour spoke of the Waterloo situation to a reporter, saying, “You can laugh about it. We don’t.” Belgian Royal Mint Manager Bernard Gillard was quoted in a May 4 New York Times newspaper report as saying, “It is a beautiful design. We were quite astonished, because we had a big part of the production ready, so now it’s just a waste of time and a Belgium/Page 22 www.worldcoinnews.net / July 2015 19 Around the World RICHARD GIEDROYC Israeli counterfeiting ring busted The April 27 arrest of five Israeli citizens counterfeiting coins may be drawing attention to just how big the problem really is. According to the April 29 The Jerusalem Post newspaper, “Counterfeit 10-shekel pieces are fairly common and are much easier to fake than Israeli bills.” No information was available at the time this article was being written regarding just how many people have been arrested in Israel in recent years for counterfeiting coins. The four men and one woman arrested in April “conspired to launch a mass counterfeiting operation capable of making as much as a half a million shekels worth of fake 10-shekel coins in a singe day,” according to the newspaper article. The counterfeiters had planned to sell the fake coins on the black market in addition to spending some of them. Two of the individuals in custody were arrested at what was described as a counterfeiting laboratory in central Israel. Although the exact location hasn’t been named, the suspects appeared in the Rishon Lezion magistrate’s court. According to police, the minting opera- tion was established inside a building where the counterfeiters had stockpiled materials from which the coins would be made as well as some coining presses. The individuals arrested at the building were reported to be actively making coins at the time of their arrest. Three other people were arrested at their homes. The unnamed individual who was identified as being the ringleader was arrested at the home he shares with the woman who was also arrested. The pair live with their two children and a third child from the woman’s previous marriage, according to The Jerusalem Post. None of the accused were named in the article. According to the Bank of Israel website, the current 10-shekel coin is a ringed bimetal coin with a reeded edge. The coin has a diameter of 23 millimeters and is the highest denomination coin in circulation. The center plug is comprised of aureate bonded bronze, while the outer ring is comprised of nickel bonded steel. The coin was designed by Reuven Nutels, with Arabic caligraphy by Yousuf Wahba. The obverse depicts a palm tree COIN BOXES SUPPLIES No order too small.

The motif for the obverse is a Judaic coin of A.D. 69 issued during the fourth year of Jewish-Roman civil war, this being a year one coin from before the destruction of the Second Temple by the Romans. The reverse includes the denomination expressed as “10 New Sheqalim” accompanied by “Israel” in Hebrew, Arabic, and English; the date in Hebrew; a branch with dates; and vertical lines. According to the website, “Israel’s coins usually carry designs based on those that appeared on ancient Jewish coins.” This coin was introduced in 1995. Israel’s current coins are based on a series first introduced in 1985. At that time coins were issued in denominations of 1, 5, and 10 agorot, half and 1 new shekel. The new 5 shekel coin was introduced in 1990, followed by the new 10 new shekel or sheqalim in 1995. The intermediary 2 shekel was introduced in 2007.

Various representatives of German coin magazines and dealers’ associations declared that they believe this to be a way to promote coin collecting.” Modern German silver coins had their beginnings through an 1837 Munich convention by which Bavaria, Hesse, and Wuerttemberg mutually adopted a monetary standard of 24.5 gulden to the fine mark. This resulted in denominations consisting of a gold gulden, half gulden in silver, minor silver denominations of 6 and 3 kreuzers as well as lower denominations in base metals. Additional southern German states later adopted the convention. A two-part system commenced via an agreement made at Dresden in 1839. The northern states, led by Prussia and Saxony, established the taler tariffed at 1.75 gulden, while the southern states tariffed the gulden at 4/7 talers. The major silver denominations were to be worth two talers or 3.5 guldens. The Zollverein (Customs Union) was to use the standard of a pound equalling 500 grams. The existing relationship between northern and southern currency was to be maintained at two talers equalling 30 vereinstaler, which equalled the zollpfund. Late 19th and early 20th century half- and 1-mark coins of Imperial Germany were issued for circulation comprised of 0.900 fine silver. Additional silver composition 3- and 5-mark coins were issued in the name of grand duchies, principalities, and kingdoms that comprised a united Germany ruled by the kaiser or king. Coins were issued struck of 0.500 fine silver between 1924 and 1938 by the Weimar Republic, successor to Imperial Germany following World War One. Nazi Germany (Third Reich) coins included a 0.625 fine silver 2 reichsmark and a 0.900 fine silver 5 reichsmark. Following World War Two the German Federal Republic or Bundesrepublik Deutschland introduced a circulating 0.625 fine silver 5-mark coin in 1951. Silver composition 5- and 10- mark commemoratives followed. Some of these periodically found their way into circulation. Due to the increasing spot price of silver the circulation 5 mark became a copper-nickel coin beginning in 1975. carry. But then, what was the last time you bought something worth 50 shilling? Coins make up a small percentage of money in circulation so I do not think shunning the coin will immediately lead to inflation.” The article adds, “Bategeka says having 50-shilling coins in circulation could be creating an erroneous picture of money in circulation.” The article then illustrates the frustration of trying to use these coins through interviews with several individuals. One consumer said a vendor wouldn’t accept the coins, while a commuter (boda-boda rider) said he had 4,000 shillings in value of the 50-shilling coins at home, but transportation services refuse to accept them. Another person identified as a mobile money operator said she accepts the coins since they are legal tender, however her client’s often refuse to accept them in return. Others complained the coin was too bulky, that it should be demonetized, or that it should be withdrawn in favor of a bank note of the same denomination. The current 50 shilling is part of the second shilling coin series. The 1-, 2, 5-, and 10-shilling denominations were introduced in 1987 followed by the 50, 100, 200, and 500 shilling in 1998.

Records indicate there could be gold coins that today might be valued at about 50 million euros or about $56 million U.S .onboard. Finland’s National Board of Antiquities recently authorized an already existing team of investigators to date wood recovered from the wreck to confirm the identity of the ship. Now the ship has been positively identified a treasure hunt may follow. The Hanneke Wromen was one of two German sleeves that left the free German city of Lübeck or Luebeck for Tallinn, Estonia on Nov. 11, 1468. There were between 180 and 200 people on board including crew. The most prominent passenger was Lord of the Castle Raaseporin, his spouse, and their son. Surviving documents indicate the ship carried a cargo of 10,000 gold coins and additional jewelry. A storm forced the ships to head toward the northern Finnish coast. On Nov 20 the ship sank, with everyone on board drown. The other ship survived and made it to Tallinn. Due to the loss of life the shipwreck was considered to be a major disaster. Lübeck was the lead Hanseatic city among the league of merchant cities which held a monopoly on trade throughout the Baltic Sea and the North Sea. From about 1200 onward Lübeck was the major port of departure for colonists planning to settle on land conquered by the Teutonic Knights and the Livonian Order, this being the systematic “Drang Nach Osten” of German settlers systematically displacing the Baltic tribes living in the region. The city became the Free City of Lübeck by order of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II in 1226. In 1375 Emperor Charles IV named the city one of the five “Glories of the Empire” alongside Florence, Pisa, Rome, and Venice. This “Queen of the Hanseatic League” was the largest and most powerful member of the trade group. The league fought a skirmish against Denmark and Norway in 1435 and again in 1512. The city would lose some of its status due to its involvement in the civil war in Denmark in 1534 to 1536 known as The Belgium/from Page 19 waste of money and a waste of everything, because of the French government.” The coins are attractive. The national side of each depicts a lion representing the Lion Hill Memorial standing on a map accompanied by the legend “Waterloo 1815-2015.” This map doesn’t embellish boundaries, although it does correctly show that Belgium didn’t exist at the time of the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. Belgium had already produced 180,000 of the Waterloo coins. The face value on this is 360,000 euros or about $396,000 U.S. That’s a lot of seigniorage to take off the books. And, that doesn’t count the potential profit from sales, cost of production, or the cost of destroying the coins. 22 World Coin News / July 2015 Count’s Feud The Duchy of Estonia had been sold to the Livonian Order by Denmark in 1346 and remained under the control of the order until 1525. In 1468 northern and southern Estonia were united under Livonian Order Grand Master Johann von Mengeden. Adreas Peper ruled the Bishopric of Dorpat, while Johannes Vatelkanne ruled the Bishopric of Ösel-Wiek. To the south along the Baltic coast was Poland-Lithuania, which was continuously warring with both the Livonian Order to Lithuania’s north and the Teutonic Knights to its south. The wreck of the Hanneke Wromen was discovered in 1999 by wreck researcher Rauno Koivusaari. The wreck is located south of the island of Jussarö, which is part of Finland. The shipwreck is reported to be approximately 30 meters in length and consists of three sections of the frame made of oak planks. It is these planks that were examined to determine the age of the wood and the identity of the ship. In 1468 it would be expected gold coins in transit between Lübeck and Estonia would be the “Flore Lybic,” an undated issue attributed by some numismatic sources as a goldgulden having been issued in 1437. St. John appears on the obverse, with a lily on the reverse. The coins were intentionally struck as an imitation of contemporary Italian trade coins. Hamburg, Lübeck, and Wismar established a monetary convention in 1379, each city initially issuing 4-pfennig coins. In 1432 the three cities agreed to a uniform schilling coin issue on which the city of issue can be identified by the heraldry and the legend. The reverse of these schillings is uniform, that being a cross with quadrant center. Lübeck issued an undated gold half ducat bracteate depicting a double eagle about 1300. Between 1327 and 1377 the city issued an imitation gold rose noble of England on which the king appears in a ship on the obverse, with the sun and an eagle on the reverse. The gold coins anticipated to be salvaged from the wreck of the Hanneke Wromen will likely be the “florenus aureus de Florencia” gold money described in a 1339 document rather than other gold coins foreign to the city. The coins were meant to accompany the four-day Waterloo anniversary celebration in June. The Belga news agency reported the celebration has a budget of almost 5 million euros and is expected to draw 200,000 spectators. Napoleon’s two-horned hat will be on exhibit, loaned by a French museum. The French government didn’t protest that Napoleon’s hat is on loan. France has previously issued coins marking the D-day landing of Allied troops during World War Two. Germany did not protest. The National Union of Public Services, which is responsible for the Belgian coin says France is selling its own coins commemorating Waterloo. Belgium Finance Ministry’s union NUOD spokesman Manuela Wintermans has previously said of the Waterloo coin debacle, “Once you’ve got rid of them there will be a loss of 1.5 million euros.” But, wait a minute. Who said the coins have been destroyed? The same New York Times article describes Gillard as bringing a Waterloo coin from a safe to show a newspaper reporter, describing it as “a surviving Waterloo coin, which was encased in a protective covering.” Only time will tell if any of the Belgium 2 euro Waterloo coins will surface in coin collecting markets, or perhaps if the coins will enter the market but not surface. Could this become a Waterloo cover up? Perhaps something as clandestine as the US 1913 Liberty Head nickels or the US 1933 $20 Double Eagle coins? Who has really met their Waterloo over this coin—Belgium or France.

Many of their top coins contributed to the present catalog. Many came with impressive provenances dating back to the 19th century. Twelve years ago Slaney Part I was sold by Spink. At the time a number of record prices for English coins were achieved. Those results pale into insignificance when put alongside the results of May 14. The total realized including commission was $4,805,538 [£3,139,482] or $16,180 a lot. The sale warmed up with the hammered gold. Every coin attracted very strong bidding. Almost all exceeded their high estimates and, in most cases, doubled them. Typical of the spectacular results are: Elizabeth I 1583-1600 half pound, EF: $44,212 [£28,800] (top estimate $15,350 [£10,000]); James I 1619-25 rose ryal of 30 shillings, EF: $71,838 [£46,800] (top estimate $27,549 [£18,000]); Charles I 1644 Oxford unite, EF: $106,838 [£69,600] (top estimate $38,375 [£25,000]). Similar prices were returned in hammered silver where, again, the coins of Charles I were to the fore: Oxford pound, 1644, KM-340, aEF: $221,075 [£144,000] (top estimate $122,816 [£80,000]); Carlisle besieged (1644-45) three shillings, gVF: $86,584 [£56,400]; Pontefract besieged (1648-49) two shillings, aEF: $81,058 [£52,800]. Milled gold set two world records. Charles I’s son takes responsibility for one of these. A Charles II 5 guineas of 1673 in EF realized $248,703 [£162,000], the highest price ever paid for this coin type. No doubt its superb deep red tone enhanced this item’s desirability. Sotheby’s, by the way, sold the same coin in June 1903 for £12.5.0d or about $50. But the undoubted star of the entire show was provided by George III. His contribution was a pattern 5 pounds of 1820 sporting Benedetto Pistrucci’s George and the Dragon motif. Just 25 of these coins were ever struck. This one came described as having, “light handling marks and a small scratch behind horse’s tail, otherwise brilliant good extremely fine, extremely rare” … It attracted three times its high estimate, an eye-watering $552,688 [£360,000]. The corresponding George III pattern 2 pounds took $64,479 [£42,000] while the example of Queen Victoria’s classic Una and the Lion realized $202,649 [£132,000].

It includes all Mexican colonial issues, including cobs, bust and Royal coinage in silver and gold. “I’ve had the great pleasure over the last 40 years of assembling this Mexican collection,” said Rudman. “I believe I was able to put together an exceptional group of coins, perhaps the most complete – certainly highest quality – of any collection of colonial Mexico. Now it’s time for my coins to move on to new collectors, who I’m certain will appreciate their beauty and historical value.” The collection features a full set of the issues of the first, and very rare, 1732 date, including both varieties of the doubloon (8 escudos) and a superb Mint State 1 escudo; a complete set of the “Cara de Perro” 1747 issues, all in outstanding condition and of unmatched overall quality; an incredible array of the extremely rare “Rat Nose” 4 escudos, which represents 85 percent of the current population of the type certified by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation, including two specimens tied as the finest certified for the entire type in AU-55 preservation; an unprecedented offering of the extremely rare minor Charles IV transitional issues of 1789-1790 showing the previous bust of Charles III; type representatives of all denominations in the series, including two Choice Mint State Philip V doubloons and a Mint State examples of the very rare 1770 Rat Nose doubloon. There is also a “full set of all conf irmed issues of the War of Independence provisional Guadalajara mint,” said Bierrenbach, “including the Norweb example of the legendary 1812 4 escudos. The latter represents only the second public offering of the type in over 70 years.” Additional parts of the collection will be presented in throughout 2016. Locations of these will be announced later.

To look up a show quickly by date alone, or if you first need to find out where a particular show will be held, use the Showdex section beginning on Page A21. Show dates and locations are sometimes changed at the last minute, so it’s best to call the promoter or show site before traveling a long distance. Except as otherwise indicated by the name of a sponsoring organization, shows listed are commercially sponsored events. If no listing appears for a state, there are no shows in that state during the covered period.

A framed display of coins is about as safe as is an original painting. It depends on who is going to see them. If family and perhaps a few friends are all that will view them you are likely reasonably safe. If you have a cleaning service or other non-family traffic in your house I would think twice before advertising I’m a coin collector to these people. ■ I’m considering loaning my coins to a local museum. What arrangements do you suggest? Ensure the agreement is in writing. Include the length of time the coins will be on loan, who is responsible for their security and insurance, how the coins will be displayed, and how the coins will be stored and protected while they are on loan. You need to have a detailed inventory taken, accompanied by a current appraisal. Do you want the public viewing the collection to know they belong to you, or do you wish to remain anonymous?

You may want to have a lawyer draw up the agreement for you. ■ Can I pledge my coin collection against a loan? There are individuals, banks, pawn stores and loan companies that will accept a coin collection as collateral for a secured loan. Anticipate getting a maximum loan of perhaps 70 percent of the current appraisal value of the collection. Ensure a detailed inventory has been taken and verified since the coins will likely be under the guardianship of the party giving you the loan until the loan is repaid. How will the collection be stored and who will insure them while they are in someone else’s possession? All these details need to be made in writing. ■ Are there official restrikes of coins of British India? The quick answer is yes. According to Jerome Remick in British Commonwealth Coins, “The Bombay Mint and the Calcutta Mint have been restriking proof specimens of many of their coins almost since the day the mints opened. Usually, the buyer supplies the metal and pays a small fee for each coin he wants ... coins, to the best of my knowledge, have not been restruck. It must be assumed that probably over 95 percent of the India proof coins on the market today are restrikes.” Gold Coins of the World by Robert Friedberg lists only uncirculated gold coins of British India. Below this listing is the statement, “Restrikes have been issued by the Bombay and Calcutta mints of most of the coins of British India.” ■ What is a scyphate coin? No one seems to know the true reason for the introduction of scyphate coins, but since they stack nicely this may be the answer. A scyphate coin is concave or cup shaped. The Byzantine Empire issued such coins in gold, silver and in bronze between the 11th and the 14th centuries. The term scyphate likely originated from Clinic/Page 51 ATLAS NUMISMATICS World, Ancient and United States Coins of Exceptional Quality 1018317 | ITALIAN STATES. VENICE. Marcantonio Giustinian.

See our new website www.celticcoins.com Chris Rudd www.worldcoinnews.net / July 2015 49 New issues extend popular Mongolian series Recent years have seen Mongolia take out a number of top Coin of the Year awards with its innovative wildlife designs. In May further coins in the two prize-winning series were announced by Lichtenstein’s Coin Invest Trust. First up is Campbell’s Dwarf Hamster known to its scientific mates as Phodopus campbelli. This is the latest edition to CIT’s highly successful Mongolian Wildlife Protection Series. As some readers will know these cuties have become very popular pets since their 1902 discovery in the wilds of Mongolia. They are now the subject of two new 500 tugrik proofs: a 38.61 mm, 1 oz .999 fine silver piece with an antique finish, and a 11 mm, 0.5 g .9999 fine gold coin. Mintages are 2,500 and 15,000 respectively. As in past issues of this series the eyes of the hamster on the silver coin are picked out with black SWAROVSKI® ELEMENTS. This year’s offering from CIT’s Mongolian Nature Series celebrates the Saker Falcon (Falco cherrug). This became the national bird of Mongolia in 2012 and has been used in falconry by Mongols for thousands of years. Like the Hamster it gets two new 500 tugrik proofs: a pierced 38.61 mm, Mongolia’s Campbell Hamster features on the two latest 500 tugrik coin of the popular Mongolian Wildlife Protection Series.

The piercing of the gilded silver coin shows a Saker falcon flying over a stylized mountain landscape. Mintages are 2,500 and 15,000, respectively. All coins have been minted by B.H.

It struck the pocket on his money belt that contained some French small change. This took the main force of the impact. He suffered severe bruising but was otherwise unharmed. Two of the three French coins are dated 1916 and 1917 making the belt an undoubted souvenir from the Western Front. 50 World Coin News / July 2015 This is a nasty little critter well known Down Under for its aggressive behavior and powerful stings. There are 94 species known. All bar one occur only in Australia. The 94th lives across the Coral Sea in New Caledonia. They grow up to 40 mm (1.6 inches) long. One species Myrmecia pyriformis is cited in Guinness World Records as the world’s most dangerous ant. Its venom is capable of inducing anaphylactic shock in sting victims. The reaction can be lethal if left untreated. The 40.60 mm, 1 oz .999 fine silver coin has a mintage of 5,000. Earlier issues in this series have proved rapid sellouts.

The more proper term for these saucer-shaped Byzantine coins is trachea, originating from the Greek for rough or uneven. ■ Is coinage doomed to become obsolete in the face of our modern electronic age? Most of our modern coinage may be fiat rather than specie money, but regardless there will likely always be people who wants physical cash rather than some computerized transfer of credits. Coinage has been debased many times in history, only to make a comeback at some later date. Checks, bank notes, smart cards, and all other financial instruments are modern substitutes for coined money, but the bottom line in my opinion is that physical cash will always remain the foundation on which all these substitutes are built. ■ The U.S .Post Office issues “forever” stamps that can be used regardless or if postal rates go up. Has there ever been a coin with such a feature? Coins – no, but tokens – yes. There are a number of inflationary situations in which transportation, bread, fuel, telephone and other tokens have been substituted for coins and bank notes as the purchasing power of standard forms of currency declined rapidly. The latest that comes to mind are the 1980s Moscow Metro tokens used as a substitute for currency during the early 1990s in the Commonwealth of Independent States as the purchasing power of bank notes declined to almost nothing. The tokens could still be redeemed for one ride on the metro regardless of the rising cost. ■ How is gold refined at a mint? I can’t ensure all mints follow the same procedure, but at the Royal Canadian Mint this is a five-step process. It involves pre-melting ingots and establishing their purity, then injecting chlorine gas into the mix to separate the gold from other metals. This is followed by adding soda ash to cause the gold to collect in a silver-gold alloy at the bottom of the crucible. Electrolysis follows to separate impurities from the gold. The final step is what the RCM calls “the final pour” into .9999 fine ingots or into SUPER SALE # CXXIII ALBANIA 001 KM-29 1940 20 Lek BU........................ 15 ALGERIA 002 KM-105 N5 ND 1972 5 Dinars BU........ 12 AUSTRALIA 003 KM-75 1982 10 Doll PR ....................... 15 004 KM-381 2000 5 Doll PR 64 cats 45, sell only .......................................................... 22 AUSTRIA/NETHERLANDS 005 KM-32 1788/7/4 A Kronen Thaler XF cats 175 only .......................................... 125 BAHAMAS 006 KM-66 1976 2$ C-N Mint 4381, scarce in Unc condition ............................................. 7 BOLIVIA 007 KM-73 1797 8-R VF ............................. 85 008 KM-84 1820 Pts 8-R XF only ............. 100 BRAZIL 009 KM-474 1869 20 Reis CH Unc, Red, great condition, only.......................................... 20 CANADA-COUNTER STAMPS 010 1859 Cent F ctsp ‘B.S.M.’....................... 8 011 1876-H Cent VG/F ctsp J.W.

See it today, buy it today! www.worldcoinnews.net / July 2015 51 From A to Z BOB REIS Billon dinero common coin of early Spain I have the book Las Monedas Espanolas del Tremis al Euro by Adolfo, Clemente, and Juan Cayon. There have been several comprehensive catalogs of Spanish coins published over the last 25 years, most of them with one of the Cayons as an author. Each has been more extensive and generally more useful than the previous ones. This one starts with the Visigoths, proceeds through the Muslims, continues with the various kingdoms of the medieval period, and on to just a few years ago. I’ve come across some things that aren’t in it, but not many. The Muslim invasion of Iberia began in 711 CE and was as complete as it was going to get by 715. The Christians were pushed into the far northwest corner of the peninsula. The region had been a boondocks in Visigothic times. The Visigothic kings had tried to incorporate it but there was resistance by the natives. The Muslims went up there and occupied most of the towns but the locals attacked them from the hills and made enough trouble that they had substantially left by 722 CE. The Christian resistance was initially what we would today call factional or clan based but a leader emerged, Pelagius (Pelayo in Spanish). He was elected “dux” (duke) by the other war leaders, and by politics he extended his influence until he was able to have his son succeed him, then another son, a grandson, and so on through a chain of familial succession that lasted about three centuries. The rulers styled themselves first princes, then kings, of Asturias. Asturias was initially a small enclave, later expanded to most of the northern part of Iberia. Disorganization immediately south produced a sparsely populated buffer zone that protected Asturias from the Muslims. Normal medieval aristocratic rivalries proceeded in Asturias, as well as ethnic and class based rebellions and disturbances, wars of succession, etc. In 910 the kingdom split into 3 realms: Asturias, Galicia, and Leon, and then in 924 they were reunited as the kingdom of Leon. There were apparently no coins issued by the kings of Asturias. Coins were made by Leon, but first we should 52 World Coin News / July 2015 The standard coin of Christian Iberia of the 9th through 12th centuries was the billon dinero. This one, struck in Castilian Toledo for Alfonso I of Aragon while he was married to Queen Urraca of Leon and Castile, is perhaps the most common of the period. A hoard seems to be on the market right now. discuss things that were happening elsewhere. The Muslims went up into southern France and took a number of towns but were beaten back by Charles Martel (the Hammer), mayor of the palace (majordomo) of the Merovingian king in Gaul (now France) and grandfather of Charlemagne. The way power worked in Europe at that time was mostly military. A leader of soldiers was in charge of some swath of territory, ostensibly keeping the peace so peasants could grow food to maintain the soldiers. If the territory was large enough the leader might be titled “duke,” larger still perhaps “prince,” or even “king.” Someone was, at least in theory, emperor, though that title had lapsed in the west for some centuries and the only emperor there was sat in far away Constantinople. In theory smaller leaders would be in a stratified alliance with some larger leader; counts to dukes, dukes to kings, kings to emperors. In practice it was a contest of all against all, leaders of various categories conspiring with and against each other for advantage. The tools used were military, diplomatic, and matrimonial. A brake on the political ambitions of major players was the church, the big stick of which was the fear of eternal damnation for bad behavior. Bad behavior did not stop of course, but at least someone was talking about it. And the church had its own temporal power as well: money, land, treaties and contracts with the various secular power holders. It was more difficult for a ruler to rule if the church was not on board. France (Gaul) was ruled in theory by a king of the Merovingian line, though in the 8th century the king was a figurehead and the royal power was in the hands of the mayor of the palace (majordomo). The top ranked nobles, the big dukes, could pretty much do as they pleased. Well, in the mid-8th century, while the Muslims were conquering Iberia, Odo, duke of Aquitaine in southwestern France, was the other major power in the Merovingian kingdom beside Charles Martel the palace mayor. Blood was shed over territorial claims. Odo had turned back a Muslim advance into his realm, later married his daughter to a dissident Muslim opposed to the Umayyads. But when the Umayyads killed her husband and threatened Aquitaine Odo found himself forced to beg Charles Martel for aid. Charles turned back the Muslim advance. That display of power by the majordomo scared the nobles of Provence, in southern France to the east of Aquitaine, who invited the Muslims in to help defend them against their Christian rival. Charles campaigned in Provence and expelled the Muslims from most of the land, but was unable to take Narbonne, close to the modern border with Spain. That was the 730s CE. Charles’ younger son, Pepin, later called “the Short,” took Narbonne from the Muslims, confining them to Iberia. Crowned king in 751 CE, he spent the rest of his reign at war with the duke of Aquitaine, whom he vanquished. Pepin’s son, Charles, who became Charlemagne, turned Aquitaine into a subkingdom with his young son as king, the power held by a trusted regent. Attention could now be turned to the Muslims on the other side of the southern border. The Umayyads were the largest political entity on the Muslim side, but they were not the only ones. Regional lords, fearful of possible Umayyad encroachments, turned to the Franks as possible allies. In 792 CE a new Umayyad emir (they weren’t calling themselves caliphs yet) declared a jihad against Asturias, whose ruler, Alfonso I, asked the Franks for aid. The Muslims were repulsed. In 801 the Franks took Barcelona. Frankish activity elsewhere in northern Iberia resulted in the formation of client realms, notably Aragon and Navarre. We’ll be discussing those two regions more later. For most of the 9th and 10th centuries the border between Christian and Muslim regions of Iberia remained substantially static. Barcelona in Catalonia became the major city of the Christian zone. Some of this period has been deemed a “golden age” of Muslim culture in Spain, and though there were normal medieval wars they tended to be smaller and shorter than previously. If you look for Christian coins of northern Spain during late this late first millennium period, however, you won’t find them easily. There are coins from Barcelona of Charlemagne and his successors, billon dineros and obolos (half denaros), very rare, I found none for sale in a quick web search. Barcelona became a county with a Catalan count in the 870s, Wilfredo the first of the line, continuing into the 12th century Reis/Page 54 WORLD BANK NOTES BUYING OR SELLING Military Payment Certificates ALLIED MILITARY CURRENCY ESSIE KASHANI P.O.

Barcelona and Aragon maintained a special status in the Iberian political scheme as it became more and more centralized over the centuries, and there are coins of special types into the 19th century. The coins of the independent counts are very rare however, including an imitation of a Muslim dinar struck by count Ramon Berenguer, 1054-76, called “mancus.” There were also coins issued in other Catalonian towns in the names of various persons: the Barcelona counts, kings of Aragon, local counts, bishops, etc. Towns listed in Adolfo, Clemente & Cayon are Girona, Ampurias, Besalou, Rousillon and Perpignan (both now in France), Pallars, Urgell (whose bishops are still today co-rulers with France of Andorra), Vic. For that matter, there really are no common 9-10th century European coins. Barcelona is in Catalonia, the northeastern part of Spain. To the west is Aragon, further west, with a bit of Atlantic coastline, is Navarre. Its most famous town today is Pamplona, where they “run” the bulls. Navarre, the eastern reaches of Asturias, resisted the Muslims, was taken by Charlemagne, who gave it to his son Louis the Pious, who lost it to the local Basques. A Basque king emerged in 824 CE, allied with dissident Muslims nearby. The Navarese kingdom endured until 1516, from time to time under foreign control, until absorbed by the unified Spanish state. The earliest Navarese coins are from Sancho IV, 1054-76. Coinage was spotty and sparse thereafter. Denominations were the standard Spanish billon dineros and obols until the mid-14th century. 54 World Coin News / July 2015 Aragon became a separate kingdom in 1035, on the death of Sancho III of Navarre. Spanish succession had followed Carolingian norms, dividing the realm among his sons, thereby weakening their positions. The natural fix for that political problem was to create a primary successor but the other children generally didn’t like that, so there were always these wars of succession. Sancho tried it, and while there wasn’t a hot war, Aragon and some other regions broke away from Navarre, and Ramiro I became its first king. Most of the early Aragonese coins have an unusual reverse type of a cross topping some kind of plant. They are generally rare. The Aragonese kings played politics with the other Christian kings and with various Muslim power wielders, same as everyone else at the time. This is just a couple of centuries we’re going through so briefly, basically the high point of Muslim culture in Iberia. The last thread to be introduced into the tapestry is the evolution of Asturias into Leon and the emergence of Castile. King Alfonso III of Asturias was deposed by his three sons, who divided the kingdom between them. One brother got Galicia in the west, one stayed in Oviedo, the old capital, the third got Leon, an extensive chunk of central northern Spain. All three brothers campaigned in the Muslim south, scoring victories and extending their territories. Galicia had administrative and succession problems over several decades and was eventually absorbed by Leon. Eastern Leon was the county of Castile. Castile was full of castles, hence its name. The local rulers began to call themselves counts mid-9th century CE. Successive counts increased their power and territory until a temporary dissolution of the county, followed by a reuinification, after which the counts became hereditary, rather than being appointed by the king of Leon. In 1035 the title of king of Castile was first used by Ferdinand I when he prevailed in a war against his brotherin-law. In the next 150 years Castile and Leon were united by marriage and war, fell apart, were united again, and so on until 1230 when Ferdinand III inherited both kingdoms in a union that remained, as it happened, permanent. Despite all of the bloody bickering they indulged in the Christian states gradually expanded their territory, so that in the 13th century they controlled a bit more than half of the Iberian peninsula. The earliest coin of Leon (and Castile) was stuck in the name of Ferdinand I, 1035-65, a billon dinero, very rare. Alfonso VI, 1065-1109, issued more common dineros and scarce obols. Alfonso took Toledo from the Muslims in 1085 and issued coins from there. He was followed by his daughter, Urraca, 1109-26, whose coins are rare. She married Alfonso I of Aragon but they did not get along, and fought a war against each other until they managed to get an annulment in 1112. Urraca continued to reign until her death, expanding her territory at the expense of the Muslims. Her coins, all dineros, are rare. Strangely. to my mind, one of the types of Alfonso of Aragon’s Toledo dineros is very common, perhaps the only Christian Spanish coin before the 13th century that is easy to obtain. I notice as I look through the various series of early Reconquista coins that there are only a few in gold, none in copper, none in fine silver, only billon. A similar situation obtained in the Muslim zone: no copper, base silver, but the Muslims apparently had a lot more gold to work with. We leave off in the mid-12th century to continue next time with the Reconquista to the completion of the vanquishing of the Spanish Muslims in 1492. ◆ ANYONE CAN SELL A COIN!

In May the Royal Australian Mint recognized the occasion by striking a commemorative cupronickel BU 20 cents. It was the latest in several coins and one issued bank note that makes Sir Henry the most numismatically honored Australian. Apart from the 20 cents the centenary of his death in 1996 saw issue of a circulating dollar (KM-310). It came with “C” mintmark and “S”, “A”, “M”, and “B” counterstamps, plus a proof in sterling silver (KM-310a). That coin featured in both the regular uncirculated and baby sets that year. Sir Henry was also there, as might be expected, on one of the six $5 coins issued in 2001 as Masterpieces in Silver: Federation 1901-2001 (KM638). On that coin’s reverse he is accompanied by a prominent Tasmanian and a Queenslander. And, of course, his portrait was front and center on a special $5 note issued in 2001 also commemorating the federation centenary (P-56). There had been a proposal in the 1950s for Sir Henry to appear on the nation’s notes following the ascent of Queen Elizabeth to the throne. An entire new issue was proposed. Various essays were prepared. Among them Sir Henry featured on a 10 shillings but in the end gave way to Matthew Flinders. Sir Henry was also proposed for the face of a new £50 issue. Again he missed out. No note of that denomination was ever produced. So who was Sir Henry Parkes and why is he so honored? Parkes’ background does little to suggest he would end up as, “the most commanding figure in Australian politics” as described in one obituary. Prior to his discovering the world of politics he exhibited all the hallmarks of an utterly incompetent businessman. He would continue to reinforce that impression throughout his life. He was born England in 1815. From a very young age he worked as a road laborer, a stone breaker, and on a souland health-destroying rope walk. At some point he was apprenticed to a bone and ivory turner. He received little for56 World Coin News / July 2015 Coombs/Wilson £50 essay that features a small central portrait of Sir Henry Parkes.

As a teenager two influences affected him greatly: a silver-tongued preacher in the local chapel and a couple of gifted orators from the trade unions. That latter led to his becoming associated with the politics of improving the lot of the working masses. He married at 21 and set up his own business the following year. It failed. Following the death of two children Parkes and his wife emigrated to New South Wales. The work he found here enabled him to discharge accumulated debts but another attempted business start-up saw it collapse owing £48,500. The journalist The remainder of Parkes life would be a mix of top-drawer political achievements intermingled with dismal business failures. Soon after his arrival in New South Wales he immersed himself in local political issues such as self-governance, cessation of transportation of criminals, land reform, and universal suffrage. He wrote about these matters in local newspapers. He made speeches. He attracted attention. He successfully published poetry. This introduced him to important players in Sydney, Australia’s media. In 1850 he tried journalism. He founded the Empire newspaper. This saw him elected as a representative for the City of Sydney in the Legislative Council. However, he had to resign to focus on his struggling paper. In 1856 it too Original engraving of Sir Henry Parkes in his political heyday by Bruce Stewart as used on 2001 federation $5 commemorative note. Alfred Deakin sums the man up most elegantly, “He was cast in the mold of a great man and though he suffered from numerous pettinesses, spites and failings, he was in himself a large-brained self-educated Titan whose natural field was found in Parliament and whose resources of character and intellect enabled him in his later years to overshadow all his contemporaries.” He was created Knight Commander of the Order of St. Michael and St. George in 1877 and Knight Grand Cross of the same order in 1888.

His return to the Legislative Assembly was frustrated by his insolvency. He survived bankruptcy proceed- ings and finally made it back to parliament in 1859 as an independent. Over ensuing years he weathered a number of political storms and built up a strong personal following among the liberals. In 1866 he was appointed Colonial Secretary. This saw his becoming entangled, quite unnecessarily, in aftermath of the March 1868 attempt to assassinate the visiting Duke of Edinburgh, Queen Victoria’s second son. Parkes’ claim of an alleged Fenian plot proved unfounded and his reputation became somewhat tarnished. He resigned. A further attempt to establish a business collapsed in 1870 with even more debts. He survived by borrowing from friends and working as a journalist. By now he acknowledged he was as hopeless a businessman as he was a successful politician. In 1872 he was re-elected to parliament. One of his speeches led to the defeat of the incumbent government. The following general elections saw Parkes become premier. The premier Over the next 20 years Parkes would be premier of New South Wales on five occasions. His times at the helm were marked by economic and political stability. Infrastructure and social services were improved. Trade flourished. Surpluses accumulated in the treasury. Nevertheless Parkes would be tossed out by fickle voters as often as they would elect him. And throughout his health was deteriorating. By 1881 it was in a bad way. He took time out to visit England – and Melbourne. Upon his return his ministry was defeated in the House and, subsequently, at the polls. He lost his own seat. At age 70 he resigned from all politics. However, the war in the Sudan found him back at the political barricades. In the 1885 election Parkes defeated the current premier of New South Wales in his own seat. More political upheavals in the ensuing months saw a number of premiers come and go. In an election in 1887 Parkes led his party to a resounding victory. This was fortunate. His salary compensated for yet another business failure. In February 1888 his long-suffering first wife died. A year later he remarried offending his family and local society. He rode out the opprobrium and in March 1889 was back as premier for the fifth and last time.

Image courtesy ww.ha.com Parkes had long been a champion of federation of Australia’s several colonies. In 1867 he had stated, “I think the time has arrived when these colonies should be united by some federal bond of connexion.” It was not, however, until October 1889 that he judged the time ripe to broach the matter countrywide. He telegraphed the premiers of the other colonies, including New Zealand, and proposed an initial conference for February 1890. This led to the 1891 National Australasian Convention held in Sydney. Parkes was appointed president, “not only as the premier of the colony where the convention sat, but also as the immediate author of the present movement,” The conference led the first draft of a bill to constitute the Commonwealth of Australia. The name of the new nation had been proposed by Parkes. That bill was met with some hostility in the New South Wales assembly and Sir Henry Parkes, GCMG: May 27, 1815April 27, 1896, celebrated on this year’s Australian 20 cents coin.

Five years later he died in poverty which makes his ongoing commemoration on Australia’s coins – and a bank note – more than somewhat ironic. ◆ www.worldcoinnews.net / July 2015 57 Swedish plate money finally goes in 1776 By Kerry Rodgers Editor’s note: The first part of this two-part examination of Swedish plate money appeared in the June issue. To all intents and purposes, from 1624 to 1776 Sweden-Finland operated six different currencies: three based on silver [daler/riksdaler, mark/carolin, öre], two based on copper [plates, minors], and gold [ducat]. From time to time either copper or silver got the official nod as the principal currency base. It depended on market values. Apart from the differences in fineness between the silver currencies, variations existed between the copper minors and copper plates. The 1660 devaluation of the öre had introduced small differences but these became significant after 1719. Before 1719 both copper minors and copper plates were considered to contain their intrinsic metal value. After 1719 this was true only for copper plates. Significantly, Gresham’s law seldom kicked in or, at least, to any great extent. Good money drives out bad only where there is a fixed exchange rate between good and bad, be that a legally defined rate or simply that of the marketplace. Thus the greenback circulated happily alongside the gold dollar in the USA in the 1860s when neither was exchangeable with the other, but the gold could be sold for a premium in paper. Any premium on good money causes it to stay in circulation. For example, in the early 1650s, the Amsterdam copper price fix was very low but the value of copper plate coins in riksdaler did not fall. Hence copper plates were worth more as money than as copper for export. In contrast, during the 18th century there was a negative premium on copper plates because of their high costs of transportation. The plates were effectively undervalued against the price of raw copper with the higher denominated copper plates exported en masse and hence disappearing from circulation; one reason they frequently turn up in 18th century shipwrecks. In 1654 Queen Christina converted to Catholicism and abdicated. Her extravagant lifestyle plus the Thirty Years’ War of 1618-1648 left her country with vast debts. The situation was not improved when her successor and 58 World Coin News / July 2015 Adolf Frederick 1/2 daler silvermynt plate money of 1752, KM-PM80, 100 x 85 mm.

Third issue Stockholms Banco 50 daler silvermynt dated 26 February 1666 with manuscript serial number 938, P#A59. Only five examples are believed extant. The first notes were issued in daler kopparmynt and daler silvermynt in 1661. Not a single example is known to have survived. Other series were issued between 1662 and 1664. These socalled Palmstruchers, such as this example, all date from 1666. The notes were made of thick, white handmade paper with the word “BANCO” as watermark. The front is printed in black and text within a figured frame that also contains the signatures and seals are. The notes were issued in paper envelopes of which only one is known today.

One solution was found in depreciating the copper plates. This was achieved simply by increasing the Mint’s premium [seigniorage] to 14 percent. One immediate consequence was an increase in the exchange rate with the ever-constant riksdaler. And then, along came bank notes. Doing it with paper Stockholms Banco was formed in 1657. Its director, Johan Palmstruch, had once been arrested for insolvency, a matter he vigorously denied. Large amounts of copper plates, minted under the original lower premium regime, ended up deposited at Johan’s Banco. In 1661-1664 the bank decided to clip these older plates so that they now contained the same copper equivalent as the newly minted higher premium plates. In effect the Banco reaped the increased seigniorage resulting from the mint’s debasement. The profits were enormous with half going to the Crown. Also in 1661 Stockholms Banco began issuing paper money, backed by the deposited copper plates, in the form of kreditivsedlar [credit notes]. One reason was to resolve the ongoing money shortage resulting from the increase in mint premium on plates. These notes were not the first European paper money, but kreditivsedlar are the direct ancestors of modern bank notes: they were on printed paper forms, in round denominations, and they did not specify a depositor, a deposit, nor any interest. The notes were payable to bearer with possession of any note sufficient to constitute a claim on the bank. Importantly, the notes were issued by an institution that operated as a central bank. Much of the copper plate money in the bank’s vaults had been deposited by customers in exchange for convenient but interest-free cashier notes and promissory notes issued by the Exchange Department. The kreditivsedlar were issued to bank customers who arrived at the bank wanting their old low premium plates back following Charles X’s devaluation. A Royal Decree allowed the bank to issue notes in lieu of the copper although only to persons with cash deposits in the bank. The new-fangled notes proved popular with the public. They were far more Plate/Page 60 Four caroliner of Charles XII dated 1718-LC, KM323. Images courtesy Heritage Auctions. Four marks “vitt mynt” of Charles XII 4, KM337, with 1708/7 overdate.

To help their acceptance a small premium applied to the notes relative to metal coins. At no time did the notes issued account for more than 10-20 percent of the total money supply and Palmstruch insisted the total of issued notes never exceeded 2.7 million daler kopparmynt. Nonetheless this amount was excessive. Importantly the rate at which the notes circulated was much greater than that of copper plates, causing speed wobbles in the money market and a dip in the notes’ value. The discounted value was never greater than 8-10 percent, but when the bank insisted on exchanging notes at par there was a run on the bank by note holders. From 1664 through 1666 the notes became inconvertible and the Swedish Riksdag [Parliament] decided to withdraw them. This was done to their full value. Stockholms Banco was taken over by the Crown and reconstituted as the Riksbank in 1668, the first central bank in history. For the rest of the 17th century no further bank notes were issued. Palmstruch was charged with irresponsible account-keeping and with not having sufficient cash to redeem the issued notes. He was found guilty in 1668 and sentenced to loss of title, loss of banking privilege, and eternal exile or death. The government reprieved his death penalty and tossed him in the slammer instead. He died three years later at age 60. Silver swings and copper roundabouts From 1664 to 1674 silver was the principal official currency, although a dual copper-silver standard persisted. Then, from 1674-1681, it was the turn of copper plates to become the official currency unit although, again, the dualcurrency standard was maintained with a premium prevailing on both carolins and öre courant. In 1681 silver was again made top dog and would maintain its dominance until 1709. Copper plates now became undervalued in terms of their exchange rates against both silver and the market fix of raw copper. Consequently copper plates were exported and vanished from circulation. Throughout these currency swings and roundabouts the exchange rate of the silver riksdaler remained quite stable at around 25 marks kopparmynt. Most riksdalers in circulation in the late 17th and early 18th centuries had been minted during the reign of Queen Christina. The Riksbank’s holdings of riksdaler specie stood at 134,000 in 1696 but dropped to just a few thousand by the late 1710s. From 1709 to 1766 copper again officially ruled the roost in Sweden with copper plates minted in 1710 on such a large scale as to have profound effects throughout the entire Swedish monetary system. One result was to stimulate the rise of fiat money in the same way the introduction of copper plates in the 1640s and 1650s spawned the bank note issue of the 1660s. When the copper price increased in the early 1710s copper plates were again exported in bulk and a ban on their export was put in place in 1713-1714. Finally, on May 17, 1715, all copper plates were revalued by 50 percent and stamped accordingly. This made them more valuable as coin than as metal. “Off with his head!” The Great Nordic War ended in 17161719. Before war’s end the monetary system was going from bad to worse aided and abetted by the introduction of emergency token coins: nödmynt. Every token was meant to represent a given value of copper coin having a weight of 756 g but their copper contents were just 0.5-1 percent of their face values. Their introduction led to a new round of inflation with copper plates commanding a significant premium over tokens. This rose as high as 67 percent in 1719. To add to the confusion myntsedlar [coin notes or chits] were also circulated. These fell in value even more sharply than the tokens and caused widespread destitution among those at the bottom of the social order. The tokens had been the brainchild of Georg Heinrich von Görtz, Baron of Schlitz. He was not a Swede but had ingratiated himself with Charles XII and become his Chief Minister. His token issue was comparatively modest but Charles seized upon the coins as a godsend and struck them in quantities too vast for the Riksbank to cope. When they were first issued the government had guaranteed their value and their redemption after the war. When Charles was killed in 1718 the government did redeem them but at only 50 percent of their face value. The country was enraged. The anger grew when a rumor swept Sweden that the daler copper plates issued by the Riksbank during the war were also inferior and would be unacceptable to pay taxes. The nation turned its fury upon Görtz. He was hauled before a special commission, tried without benefit of legal assistance or the use of writing materials, condemned to death, and promptly beheaded. Riksdaler rules, OK? For many years major powers behind the Swedish Crown had been at work to bring about major long-term changes in the country’s money system. The Crown itself had a vested interest in finding a more convenient currency than copper plates and in 1701 the Riksbank had begun issuing transportsedlar [transfer notes] in lieu of plates. The name implied that when the notes were involved in a transaction they must be physically transported upon being assigned from an old owner to a new. This method was time-consuming and people, many of whom were illiterate, were reluctant to attach their names to any monetary instrument, particularly given the country’s ongoing monetary confusion. Although the market value of these notes was directly related to the market value of copper plates, the exchange rate of the riksdaler was now linked to the mark kopparmynt. Nonetheless the notes proved popular as the public found ways around the regulations. In 1726 the Riksbank agreed to accept them in payment of taxes. Gradually the amount of paper money increased to become the main component of circulating currency in Sweden-Finland. In 1722 the amount totaled 12,219 daler silvermynt, but by 1730 they were worth one million daler silvermynt, and in 1740 5.3 million daler silvermynt or about 5-6 percent of GDP. The ongoing major swings in parity between copper and silver and between copper and notes delayed all attempts for a comprehensive revision and simplification of the monetary system. It was not until 1776 that Sweden’s government managed to grasp the nettle and initiate long overdue reforms. A mono-metallic silver specie standard was re-established with the riksdaler made the sole unit of account – apart from the gold ducat. The stability of the riksdaler had long made it the preferred medium of exchange with large numbers minted from 1766 to 1776. The old medieval division into marks, öre and penningar was abolished and one riksdaler divided into 48 skillings, and one skilling into 12 runstycken. With the elimination of the dual copper-silver standard, the associated multifaceted accounting of kopparmynt, silvermynt, öre courant and carolins was also swept away. All existing copper coins were halved in value and copper plates treated purely as commodities. After 130 years the plåtmynt were no more.

Krause Publications, a division of F+W Publications, reserves the right to decline advertising or suspend advertising privileges for such periods of time as in their discretion they see fit, for any reason whatsoever, irrespective of the validity of the reasons for such declination or suspension. The forwarding of an order is construed as an acceptance of all rates and conditions under which advertising is at the time sold. The publisher will not be bound by any conditions printed or otherwise, appearing on any order for advertising space, billing instructions or copy instructions, which conflict with its policies. Advertisers and advertising agencies assume liability for all content (including text representation and illustrations) of advertisements printed, and also assume responsibility for any claims arising therefrom made against the publishers. It is the advertiser’s or agency’s responsibility to obtain appropriate releases on any item or individual picture in their advertising. All agreements subject to strikes, accidents, fires, acts of God, or other contingencies beyond the publisher’s control. The advertiser/client assumes 100% debt payment responsibility in the event of advertising agency default. Payment accompanying an account must be provided in the form of a U.S. funds check drawn on a U.S., Canadian or Mexican bank; personal or company checks, bank money orders or cashier’s checks or similar instruments drawn on foreign banks are not acceptable, whether payment in U.S. funds or the national currency, unless the total payment provided is sufficient enough to cover all bank clearing and foreign exchange charges. GENERAL ADVERTISING CONDITIONS The publisher reserves the right to edit any advertising copy to conform with its standard advertising policies and to reject any ad which in its opinion is unethical or objectionable for any reason. This publication does not guarantee, and disclaims all knowledge of the right of seller or buyer to contract. The prices quoted in any ad are subject to change without notice in response to fluctuating market conditions. Neither the advertiser nor the publisher can be bound by prices resulting from typographical errors. Typewritten copy is preferred. The publisher is not responsible for errors resulting from longhand and illegible copy or changes submitted by telephone. The publisher’s liability for any error shall not exceed the cost of the space occupied by that error. Post Office box number ads are allowed, but the permanent home address or place of business of the advertiser must be filed with the publisher before any such advertisements may be presented. Minors are required to furnish a certificate of responsibility from their parents or guardian before their advertising can be accepted. All mail bid advertisers are subject to the publisher’s “usual mail bid rules” as published in each issue under classified advertising classification number 501.

RETURN PRIVILEGE: Except as otherwise specified in any ad, an advertiser must accept the return of any returned merchandise bearing a postmark within five working days of its receipt by a customer. Returned coins may not be removed from their original holders without prior agreement with the seller. Purchasers seeking to obtain grading service judgements as the basis for retention must notify advertisers of their intent within the applicable return privilege period. All advertisers who do not state “Write First” in their ads are expected to return merchandise postpaid. If overgraded coins are to be returned at the seller’s expense, advertisement must so state.
