The reverse face includes a depiction of the HMS Bounty as it sails across the ocean along with the words the official Cook Island’s denomination and the coin’s weight in .9999 fine silver.

The background of both sides of the coin is a flowing stylized grid or net of waves.

The HMS Bounty made just one voyage under the British Royal Navy flag, a voyage that had an infamous end when a mutiny led by Fletcher Christian took control of the vessel. Under the command of William Bligh, the Bounty was commissioned by the British Navy in 1787 and sent to the South Pacific on a scientific mission to acquire breadfruit plants. England hoped to transplant and farm the food source in the British West Indies. After the commandeering the ship, the mutineers fled the reach of the Royal Navy, sailing the the Bounty throughout the region including a course that encompassed Fiji and the Cook Islands. Eventually, the mutineers chose to set up a camp on Pitcairn Island, which was incorrectly charted by Britain. The cartography mistake gave the mutineers hope that they would remain undetected. To further cover their tracks, the mutineers burned and scuttled the HMS Bounty was burned and scuttled in the bay at Pitcairn Island in 1790.

Kurowski Group began in 1986, when Apolinary Kurowski – father of Szymon Kurowski (the owner of Germania Mint), opened a numismatic store in Poland. The family business has now grown into a 200-person company with a global clientele. The company now produces coin packaging and finishing for some 500 leading numismatic companies from around the world, including mints and central banks.

This series of .9999 fine silver coins is minted by the Perth Mint and is struck in both 2 oz and 10 oz.

The baby platypus is shown frolicking in the river with its Mom surrounded by river rocks and plants. Sometimes referred to as the “duck-billed” platypus, this semiaquatic, egg-laying mammal is endemic to eastern Australia, including Tasmania. The unusual appearance of the platypus caused a bit of a stir among European naturalists and scientists who, upon examining a preserved platypus body (in 1799), determined it was a fake, made of several animals sewn together.

All of The Next Generation coins display a mother and baby from an Australian Outback species. The obverse features the 6th generation effigy of Queen Elizabeth II designed by Jody Clark. Inscriptions at the rim include, “ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA,” “10oz 9999 Ag,” “2021,” and “10 DOLLARS.” The background of both the obverse and reverse feature very micro-engraved radial lines which provide added security,

This series also includes an unusual aspect, all of the coins will be struck as Piedfort coins. This means that the coins, while the same diameter as Perth’s standard round silver coins of the same weight, will be double the thickness.

The coin features the design found on the Aztec Sun Stone which is kept in Mexico City’s National Anthropology Museum. 260 days. In Nahuatl, the language of the Aztecs, it is called the tonalpohualli or, the day-count.Most information on this website refers to the tonalpohualli, which is the sacred calendar.

There is actually another Aztec calendar

There is not just one Aztec calendar, there are two more or less independent systems. One calendar, called the xiuhpohualli, has 365 days.It describes the days and rituals related to the seasons, and therefor might be called the agricultural year or the solar year.

The Aztec sun stone (Spanish: Piedra del Sol) is a late post-classic Mexica sculpture housed in the National Anthropology Museum in Mexico City, and is perhaps the most famous work of Aztec sculpture.[1] The stone is 358 centimetres (141 in) in diameter and 98 centimetres (39 in) thick, and it weighs about 24 short tons (21.4 long tons; 21.8 t). Shortly after the Spanish conquest, the monolithic sculpture was buried in the Zócalo, the main square of Mexico City. It was rediscovered on 17 December 1790 during repairs on the Mexico City Cathedral.[2] Following its rediscovery, the sun stone was mounted on an exterior wall of the Cathedral, where it remained until 1885.[3] Early scholars initially thought that the stone was carved in the 1470s, though modern research suggests that it was carved some time between 1502 and 1521.[4]

The tonalpohualli, or day-count, has been called a sacred calendar because its main purpose is that of a divinatory tool.It divides the days and rituals between the gods. For the Aztec mind this is extremely important.Without it the world would soon come to an end.According to Aztec cosmology, the universe is in a very delicate equilibrium.Opposing divine forces are competing for power.This equilibrium is in constant danger of being disrupted by shifting powers of the gods, of the elemental forces that influence our lives.This struggle cannot be won by any god.
The notion that everything ultimately consists of two opposing forces is essential to the Aztec worldview.The world is always on the brink of going under in a spiritual war, a war of gods competing for supreme power.To prevent this from happening, the gods have been given their own space, their own time, their own social groups, etcetera, to rule over.The tonalpohualli tells us how time is divided among the gods.

The reverse of the round depicts a warrior in mid-attack adorned with a feather headdress and bearing a spear and shield. The reverse also has the word “Aztec.”

The obverse is the standard image for the “warrior” series, with a spear, axe and sword. At the center is the iconic Trojan helmet. The reverse also bears the inscription “warriors” with the metal content, weight, and purity.

More on the Aztec Warrior

The Aztec empire’s rapid expansion central Mexico was driven by the might of its warriors.

There is some disagreement about the status of warriors in Aztec society. Could a successful Aztec warrior become a part of the nobility or was that class only accessible through heredity?

Historians say that there were “societies” within the Aztec army – groups of knights that held a high rank and a high place in society. The largest (and today most well known) of these were the Jaguars (ocelomeh) and Eagles (quauhtin). Men in these societies would wear uniforms representative of these animals.

Sometimes they would wear wood helmets with the insignia of their order. Higher classes wore bright featherwork, quilted cotton armour, mantles of blue (tlahuiztli suits). The higher the rank, the more elaborate the costume. Aztec warriors could also carry flowers, a privilege normally reserved for the nobles.

The reverse of the bar has at its center the design that is depicted on the Aztec Sun Stone. This ancient “calendar” is surrounded by intricate elements of Aztec design.

He is shown wearing the traditional headdress and jewelry of Aztec royalty. The reverse also bears the inscriptions of his name, the metal content, weight, and purity.

More on the Sun Stone

This 260-day timetable is acknowledged as the sacred Aztec calendar because it was primarily used as a divinatory tool. It was used to assign the rituals among their gods. The design, called tonalpohualli in Nahuatl, the language of the Aztecs, is a central part of their culture, as they believed that without it the world would come to an end.

The actual Aztec sun stone, which is one of the most icon pieces of this ancient society, is 141 inches in diameter and 39 inches thick, and it weighs approximately 21.8 tons.

Following the Spanish conquest, this monolith was buried in Mexico City’s main square. Then in 1790, it was rediscovered when the Mexico City Cathedral was under repair and was mounted on a wall of the Cathedral, where it remained until 1885. It is now preserved in Mexico City’s National Anthropology Museum.

There is actually another Aztec calendar called the xiuhpohualli which has 365 days. It describes the days and rituals related to the seasons, and therefor might be called the agricultural year or the solar year.

DEALERS – Order NOW!: Call the trading room to order 800.375.4653 or login to FizTrade.com.

The Obverse features Asahi’s variation on the iconic image from the American Buffalo nickel. This was originally designed by sculptor James Earle Fraser in 1911. In addition to the bison image, the obverse has the text “One Troy Ounce” and “.999 Fine Silver.”

As with the original nickel, the Reverse of this round displays Asahi’s take on James Earle Fraser’s native American profile. The text on this side is limited to “Liberty” and the Asahi logo.

The original design has inspired a variety of stories, many by the artist himself. For example, what bison did he use? Fraser wrote that the model “was not a plains buffalo, but none other than Black Diamond, the “contrariest” animal in the Bronx Zoo. I stood for hours … He refused point blank to permit me to get side views of him, and stubbornly showed his front face most of the time.” Since this quote, historians have uncovered the fact that Black Diamond was never at the Bronx Zoo, but instead lived at the Central Park Zoo. After his demise in 1915, Black Diamond’s mounted head became an attraction at coin conventions.

Silver Flag Bar – 10 ounce. This Dillon Gage exclusive offers a beautiful representation of the American flag and a testament to one of the country’s most hallowed sayings “United We Stand.”

DEALERS – Order NOW!: Call the trading room to order 800.375.4653 or login to FizTrade.com.

The obverse of the Silver Flag Bar is dominated by the 13 stripes and 50 stars of the American Flag. This symbol of national pride is instantly recognizable around the globe, even without its iconic red, white and blue colors.

The reverse displays the fineness and weight, but primarily displays the phrase “United We Stand” framed by scrollwork.

“United We Stand” has been a part of American culture since the American Revolution. The first use of the phrase in the colonies is thought to be in the fourth verse of “The Liberty Song,” a patriotic ballad by John Dickinson. This pre-Revolutionary War song was published in the Boston Gazette in July 1768 and included the lyric: “Then join hand in hand, brave Americans all! By uniting we stand, by dividing we fall!”

Founding father and renowned orator, Patrick “Give Me Liberty, or Give me Death!” Henry, used the phrase in his last public speech, in 1799. Swaying unsteadily, Henry proclaimed, “United we stand, divided we fall. Let us not split into factions which must destroy that union upon which our existence hangs.” At the end of his speech, Henry fell into his audience and was then carried into a local tavern. He died two months later.

In World War II, the phrase gained a more global meaning as the Allies embraced the sentiment. In 1942, Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands addressed the U.S. Congress saying: “United we stand, and united we will achieve victory.”

It is called the tonalpohualli in Nahuatl, the language of the Aztecs. This 260-day timetable is also called the sacred calendar because it was primarily used as a divinatory tool. The design orders the rituals among the gods. This is a key part of the Aztec culture or philosophy, as they believed without it the world would soon end. Aztec cosmology defines the universe as a very delicate balance between the divine entities who compete for power.

The Aztec sun stone, called Piedra del Sol in Spanish, is is perhaps the most famous work of Aztec sculpture. This late post-classic Mexica sculpture is 141 inches in diameter and 39 inches thick, and it weighs approximately 21.8 tons.

The popular 10-coin series launched in 2016 with the Lion of England design available on the Royal Mint’s first 2 oz silver bullion British coin.

The inspiration for this series is the statues that adorned Westminster Abbey’s entrance for Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953. Each statute is a real or fantasy creature that represents the heraldic beasts of the various English rulers in the Queen’s lineage. The plaster originals are in Canada, stone copies are at Kew Gardens, outside the palm house.

The Yale is a mythological beast from ancient times. It is described as black or reddish in color, the size of a hippopotamus with an elephant’s tail and a boar’s jaws. The Queen is connected to the yale through the first Tudor King, Henry VII, who had inherited it from his mother, Lady Margaret Beaufort. Lady Margaret was a key figure in the Wars of the Roses, which led to the founding of the Tudor Dynasty. Her role in history gave the yale prestige and symbolic meaning.

It was first used in the coat of arms of John, Duke of Bedford, and by England’s House of Beaufort.
