I did learn a lot about world coins during this trip - and how to date Arabic and other Islamic coins using their calendars and converting them over.

I had already looked at Burundi - on the main page for that country it shows "1960-1964" but if you look further they minted coins in 1960, 1961, then they jump to 1964  A lot of the countries have just skipped the year 1962 for some reason. I starting to wonder why. Was it the Cuban Missile Crisis? And most countries said " the world is over, why bother minting coins now?"
