Since tomorrow is Columbus day in the USA, here's a nice bit of Columbus-related exonumia.

Disclaimer: it is embarrassing that we celebrate this guy. Check out this little comic for some reasons why-- http://theoatmeal.com/comics/columbus_day

Yet I bought it anyway.

Something like that looked like happening in Australia.

That originally, was one of the possible scares of the Mabo decision. I actual fact, nothing really changed, except for some extra legal complications on some mining leases.

I always knew Columbus was subject to a lot of embellishment in our society but wow, the stuff they all glossed over is mind blowing. the man should be despised and not revered.
