I just bought a 2007 silver proof fencing commemorative from Ghana but it didn't arrive yet so I couldn't post it yesterday. For today I have a nice 2006 10 euro gold proof from France, issued for the 2008 Olympics with the fencing motif.  Edited by jgenn

Oh, I missed a day.  Mauritius, half rupee, 2004 India is not the only country to use a currency called the rupee - the British encouraged the use of their silver British Indian rupee all across the Indian Ocean, even making special rupee coins for use in Kenya. The rupee is now the name of the official currency in India, Pakistan, Mauritius, Nepal, Seychelles, Maldives (rufiyah), and Indonesia (rupiah). This design was first made by George Kruger-Gray, the man who designed the coins for nearly the entire British Empire, way back in 1937. Incredibly, it's still in use today. His Canadian coin designs are also still in circulation. |
