Continuing List To Show Everyones Latest Acquisitions

for each century? So, a country can have several KM#1's (for example)? do the KM#'s get carried over from one century to another if the coin was still in production?

I love your coinage Hondo. Some terrific finds.

July is a month where I'm building my stacks and stashing my cash in PM's. Included are my return to Libertads, my first Philharmonics, More Maples and Britannias, my first Kookurburras, more Krugerrands, and more 90% 1/2's and bars/rounds bullion. Also more 1921 Morgans which I have depleted giving away as "good luck" gifts to friends and family.

And all should be in hand by tomorrow. Oh I forgot I have more coinage from the Axis powers,first 1/2 of 20'th century, coming to add to my wall commemorating the victims of these tyranny's as well as the hero's who struck them down and in the process liberated its citizens as well.

Very nice display, Silverskunk.

Good questions!

An important "for me" addition to my wall arrived as a reminder of the crimes of the Nazis against the Jews in Europe during the 1930's and after.

The first part of their terrible pogrom was to deprive these people, all German citizens, of their political rights and power. The next was to force their exclusion from any part of German life and to change the curriculum's at schools, which Jews could not now attend, and teach the young anti-Jewish propaganda. Shortly after being named Chancellor Hitler was granted emergency powers and thee mass arrests began.

Next was to deprive them of their wealth and status with tax's, fines, and excluding them from the professions, which so many excelled at. Next to Last started on 9-10 November 1938 on whats we remembered as "Kristallnacht" or "Night of broken glass" when the Nazi's loosed the Brown Shirts and the fanatics onto Jewish owned business's, homes, and places of worship in an orgy of property theft/destruction, rape, murder, and mass arrests.

Many thousands of innocent Jews we sent to Concentration camps, added to the thousands already sent to them. They were stripped of their money and in the place of legitimate currency they were issued "alternative" currency which was useless outside the fences and not much more so inside them.

Of course the last chapter of this criminal act was decided on 20 Jan 1942 at a meeting in the Berlin suburb of Wannsee where the leadership and mid-Level leaders of the Nazi regime decided on the mass extermination of all European Jewry. And had they won the war, beyond.

Luckily Heros arose and defeated them but their suffering is remember in these Theresienstadt issued bills, of which they should serve as a warning to future generations to beware the power of the State. These were difficult to get and not cheap. I also added a few links about them and where they were minted at.

Thank you. And thanks to all for the comments since I started this project.

Oh and my Libertads arrived today. I didn't both putting them on the scope but they really are such beautiful coins. My personal silver favorites.

Great display Silverskunk and great additions as well.
