Romania Treasure: Koson Coin turned in by local

I found this news about Romania Koson coin that I think worth mentioning in my blog. The koson is a controversial currency as it includes equal influences from Greeks and Romans, which makes exact provenance hard to determine. One koson weighs little over 8g, which is higher than the weight of the gold coins used by the Romans. The three toga-dressed people on one face of the coin could be Roman citizens of Republican Rome and the vulture keeping a wreath in its claws could be the symbol of a barbarian monarch.


Although the first koson were found near Orastie, the coins are made of a gold ally, but Dacians, the forerunners of today’s Romanians who inhabited the area, never minted gold coins. Their coins and jewelries were manufactured of silver. This is why the most plausible theory about the coins’ provenance is that they were minted under some Dacian king named Koson, somewhere after the collapse of the kingdom of legendary Dacian king Burebista and his centralised state. Historians argue that the koson were scattered in the same area because Dacian King Decebal did so with his treasury in the face of Roman danger in 106.

on 19 September 2009, a sizeable treasure of 142 ancient Romanian coins called koson weighing more then 1.2 kg, valued on the black market at nearly 85,000 euros, has been turned in to the Police by a local of Mt. Orastie, western part of the country, who will be recompensed according to the legislation in force. The 142 koson, of high value to the national heritage of Romania, individually weighing between 8.20 and 8.80 g and dating back to the second half of the 1st century B.Ch., were presented at a news conference on Thursday at the Alba Iulia National Union Museum.

Deputy Prosecutor General with the Alba Iulia Court of Appeal Augustin Lazar said the treasure was turned in by a local of the western city of Hunedoara, who said he kept it as a good faith curator. Preliminary expert conclusions say the coins are authentic and will be turned over to Romania’s National Museum of History in Bucharest.

World Famous War-Battle of Cannae Coin

Perth Mint has been releasing World Famous War Coin series focussing on five notable engagements that changed the course of history, The Perth Mint’s Famous Battles Series portrays battlefield scenes spanning more than two millennia. Another one of the world famous war coin series is the Battle of Cannae. The Battle of Cannae was a major battle of the Second Punic War, taking place on August 2, 216 BC near the town of Cannae in Apulia in southeast Italy. The army of Carthage under Hannibal decisively defeated a numerically superior army of the Roman Republic under command of the consuls Lucius Aemilius Paullus and Gaius Terentius Varro. This is the second release in five coin series. This coin is the second coin in this series and already sold out a few month back.


The Battle of Cannae is regarded as one of the greatest tactical feats in military history and, in terms of the numbers killed, the greatest defeat of Rome. Having recovered from their previous losses at Trebia (218 BC) and Trasimene (217 BC), the Romans decided to engage Hannibal at Cannae, with roughly 87,000 Roman and Allied troops. The Romans massed their heavy infantry in a deeper formation than usual while Hannibal utilized the double-envelopment tactic. This was so successful that the Roman army was destroyed as a fighting force. Following the Battle of Cannae, Capua and several other Italian city-states defected from the Roman Republic.

The Second Punic War, which lasted between 218 and 201 BC, saw the Carthaginians under Hannibal inflict a series of crushing defeats on the Roman legions culminating at Cannae. Here, the Carthaginians faced a massive Roman army comprising 80,000 infantry and 6,000 cavalry under the command of consuls Paullus and Varro. Flanked on either side by horsemen, the huge Roman infantry was unusually deep and tightly formed. Hannibal’s armoured cavalry charged into the Roman horsemen on the left, cutting them down before riding round the back of the enemy line. Meanwhile, the centre of the Carthaginian infantry pulled back, enveloping the legionaries until they were surrounded on all sides with no means of escape. Hailed as one of greatest tactical achievements in military history, the battle resulted in Rome’s greatest defeat with the loss of up to 50,000 men. Despite its devastating loss, however, Rome prevailed decisively at the Battle of Zama in 202 BC.

This stunning coin celebrates one of the world’s Famous War–The Battle of Cannae. It is minted by Perth Mint and come with Bullion Quality 99.9% Pure Silver. Each coin is housed in a silver presentation case and customised box shipper. No more than 5,000 of these coins will be released. A numbered Certificate of Authenticity accompanies each coin. This coin also issued as legal tender under the authority of the Government of Tuvalu. Tuvalu (/tuːˈvɑːluː/ or /ˈtuːvəluː/), formerly known as the Ellice Islands, is a Polynesian island nation located in the Pacific Ocean midway between Hawaii and Australia.



The coin’s reverse, which includes The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, portrays a coloured depiction of the famous encounter. Struck elements of the design depict a Carthaginian warrior and one of Hannibal’s 30 war elephants, which famously crossed the Alps with his army.


Issued as legal tender under the authority of the Government of Tuvalu, the coin bears the Raphael Maklouf effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on its obverse.

World Famous War-Battle of Balaklava Coin

Perth Mint has been releasing World Famous War Coin series focussing on five notable engagements that changed the course of history, The Perth Mint’s Famous Battles Series portrays battlefield scenes spanning more than two millennia. The fourth coin of the world famous war coin series is The Battle of Balaklava. The Battle of Balaclava, fought on 25 October 1854 during the Crimean War, was part of the Anglo-French-Turkish campaign to capture the port and fortress of Sevastopol, Russia's principal naval base on the Black Sea. The engagement followed the earlier Allied victory in September at the Battle of the Alma, where the Russian General Menshikov had positioned his army in an attempt to stop the Allies progressing south towards their strategic goal. Alma was the first major encounter fought in the Crimea since the Allied landings at Kalamita Bay on 14 September, and was a clear battlefield success; but a tardy pursuit by the Allies failed to gain a decisive victory, allowing the Russians to regroup, recover, and prepare their defences.


The Allies decided against an immediate assault on Sevastopol and instead prepared for a protracted siege. The British, under the command of Lord Raglan, and the French, under Canrobert, positioned their troops to the south of the port on the Chersonese peninsula: the French army occupied Kamiesh on the west coast whilst the British moved to the southern port of Balaklava. However, this position committed the British to the defence of the right flank of the Allied siege operations, for which Raglan had insufficient troops. Taking advantage of this exposure, the Russian General Liprandi, with some 25,000 men, prepared to attack the defences in and around Balaclava, hoping to disrupt the supply chain between the British base and their siege lines.

The battle began with a Russian artillery and infantry attack on the Ottoman Turkish redoubts that formed Balaclava's first line of defence. The Turks initially resisted the Russian assaults, but lacking support they were eventually forced to retreat. When the redoubts fell, the Russian cavalry moved to engage the second defensive line held by the Turks and the Scottish 93rd Highland Regiment in what came to be known as the 'Thin Red Line'. This line held and repulsed the attack; as did General Scarlett's British Heavy Brigade who charged and defeated the greater proportion of the cavalry advance, forcing the Russians onto the defensive. However, a final Allied cavalry charge, stemming from a misinterpreted order from Raglan, led to a famous and ill-fated event in British military history – the Charge of the Light Brigade.

Obverse: Issued as legal tender under the authority of the Government of Tuvalu, the coin bears the Raphael Maklouf effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the 2009 year-date on its obverse.

World Famous War-The Battle of Hastings Coin

Perth Mint has been releasing World Famous War Coin series focussing on five notable engagements that changed the course of history, The Perth Mint’s Famous Battles Series portrays battlefield scenes spanning more than two millennia. The first coin of the world famous war coin series is The Battle of Hastings. The Battle of Hastings (14 October 1066) was the decisive Norman victory in the Norman Conquest of England. It was fought between the Norman army of William the Conqueror, and the English army led by Harold Godwinson.The battle took place at Senlac Hill, approximately 6 miles northwest of Hastings. Due to the popularity of the series large quantity orders may be restricted by The Perth Mint.


The third release from this popular five-coin series marks a pivotal moment in English history. In 1066, William Duke of Normandy’s fleet landed near Hastings where it engaged King Harold’s foot-weary army, recently returned from conflict in the north. A fierce battle raged for much of the day until the persistence of William’s soldiers eventually succeeded in breaking through the English lines. During the mêlée, Harold was struck in the eye by a Norman arrow, a fatal blow depicted in the 11th century Bayeaux Tapestry.

FC Mint-Official Micheal Jackson Coin

Finally, what a Micheal Jackson fan had been waiting for since the license has been announced a few months back will be release in a few days. Bravado, the world's leading global music merchandising company, has partnered with The First Commemorative Mint, Inc. to be the exclusive worldwide manufacturer of the ONLY official coins and coin collections available featuring the images of entertainment icon Michael Jackson. The commemorative coins and collections are being produced and approved under a license from the Estate of Michael Jackson. The announcement was made on monday by Tom Bennett, Chief Executive Officer of Bravado, and Bernie Neumark, President and CEO of the First Commemorative Mint.


The coins are available now and ready for shipment on 28 September 2009. Micheal Jackson coin, Struck by the United States Mint and professionally colorized with approved images of Michael Jackson. Each coin is encapsulated in a clear plastic holder to protect it from damage. The coin sets also come with a beautiful metal display box. All the coin is made in US, only the boxes come from China. 4 set of coins are available for grab:







"The value of the Michael Jackson coins lie in their unique status as both official collectibles and legal tender issues," stated Mr. Neumark. "This has never been possible before so we are excited about the opportunity. Each new coin will be a coveted first edition, so there will be tremendous demand from both coin collectors as well as Michael Jackson fans. Most coins will be produced in limited editions which will add to their scarcity and historic importance."

Michael Jackson- Four-Piece Colorized Coin Set bring image of Micheal Jackson from the height of his popularity as the King of Pop, after he made his debut with The Jackson Five in 1963 and the image of Jackson as he appeared shortly before his death. Michael Jackson-Colorized Silver Eagle Dollar – the 80s shows a classic image of Michael Jackson at the height of his career in the 1980s; features Michael's trademark high-collar "military uniform" along with his facsimile signature in blue. Michael Jackson-Colorized Silver Eagle Dollar – the 90s shows a classic image of Michael Jackson in the 1990s along with his facsimile signature in red. Michael Jackson-Five Decades Colorized Coin Set show 5 random year/mint mark Washington quarters - each colorized with an image of Michael Jackson at each stage of his stunning career: 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, 1990's and 2000's.

The only important thing I don't see in FC Mint website is the mintage quantity of the coin. To Micheal Jackson fan who want to buy this coin, mintage will not be an issue. To coin collector like me, mintage, material and design are few thing that we will look at before we invest in any coin. Small mintage number means that this coin will be a good value investment for collector. Maybe FC Mint just want to take advantage with the current Micheal Jackson phenomenon and try to sell as much coin as they can. Good luck from me.

World Famous War-Battle of Thermopylae Coin

Perth Mint has been releasing World Famous War Coin series focussing on five notable engagements that changed the course of history, The Perth Mint’s Famous Battles Series portrays battlefield scenes spanning more than two millennia. The first coin of the world famous war coin series is the Battle of Thermopylae. The Battle of Thermopylae was fought in a narrow pass in northern Greece between the invading Persian Empire under King Xerxes and a vastly outnumbered alliance of Greek city-states commanded by King Leonidas of Sparta. It took place over three days during the second Persian invasion of Greece. It took place simultaneously with the naval battle at Artemisium, in August or September 480 BC, at the pass of Thermopylae ('The Hot Gates'). This coin already sold out a few month back.


The Persian army, alleged by the ancient sources to have numbered in the millions, arrived at the pass in late August or early September. Vastly outnumbered, the Greeks held up the Persians for seven days in total (including three of battle), before the rear-guard was annihilated in one of history's most famous last stands. During two full days of battle, the small force led by King Leonidas I of Sparta blocked the only road by which the massive Persian army could pass. After the second day of battle, a local resident named Ephialtes betrayed the Greeks by revealing a small path that led behind the Greek lines. Aware that they were being outflanked, Leonidas dismissed the bulk of the Greek army, and remained to guard the rear with 300 Spartans, 700 Thespians, 400 Thebans and perhaps a few hundred others, the vast majority of whom were killed. The courageous last stand by Leonidas inspired the united Greeks to ultimate victory in ensuing battles, thereby securing the rise of classical Greece, with its innovative ideas on politics, philosophy and the arts.

Selamat Hari Raya-Green ang pow envelope

First of all I want to wish Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri to all my Muslim reader around the globe. Today I will be talking about Green envelope or "sampul duit raya" in Malay language. A green envelope (Malay: sampul hijau or sampul duit raya) is the Malay adaptation of the Chinese red envelope or ang pow, where Malay Muslims in Malaysia, Brunei and Singapore hand out money in green envelopes to their guests who visit their homes during Hari Raya Aidilfitri.

The reason behind the green colour is simply its association with the Islamic paradise. The idea of handing out green envelopes is based on the Islamic concept of zakat, where every Muslim is required to provide at least 2.5% mainly to the needy. However, providing green envelopes to others in Malay homes during Aidilfitri today is not only given to the poor guests, but also to the middle class and to the upper class. The amount of money depends on how much the host can afford to give their guests. The envelope nowadays come with different sizes and color (not just green color).

In Malaysia, Green envelope are given to any kids below the age of 12 years old that meet and greet Selamat Hari Raya to that particular person. I am remembering 20 years back, people would normally give at least one ringgit in the green packet. Nowadays, most green packet come with at least five ringgit. Some parents also give their Green packet to their children for a full month of fasting to encourage them doing so.

Happy Eid ul-Fitr to all my muslim Reader around the world.
