HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25663 Posts	Posted 12/20/2023 5:57 pm Excellent, triggersmob! It's a shame that these were minted in aluminum. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9468 Posts	Posted 12/20/2023 6:52 pm I actually don't mind aluminium. As it's soft, it strikes well. Wear, on the other hand, is a different question. Like this one. Not a birdie coin though Here's a new birdie that just landed on my desk. 2015 Cook Islands 20 cents - Fairy Tern Edited by triggersmob 12/20/2023 6:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff
HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25663 Posts	Posted 12/21/2023 01:14 am Beautiful coins, triggersmob! I really like the French coin - they used that same Marianne w/ ships obverse on quite a few of their Pacific colony coins. But back to birds, here's a 1981 Iceland 5 Aurar featuring Gammur the eagle, one of the four traditional protector spirits ("Landvættir") of Iceland (the others are Griðungur the bull, Dreki the dragon, and Bergrisi the giant). The reverse is a skate. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25663 Posts	Posted 12/21/2023 01:36 am 1982 Seychelles 25 Cent. The reverse features the Seychelles black parrot, fewer than 1000 of which survive in the wild.
