CHINA – YEAR OF THE ROOSTER – (2) COLORED MEDAL SET – 2005 – BOX and COA—As legend would have it, it was Buddha himself who gave each animal its place in the Asian zodiac. When he called all the animals together following the creation, only twelve felt it necessary to attend the meeting. As a reward for their effort in making the long journey, Buddha offered each of them their own year, which would from then on bear the name of that animal. In addition, each animal was also given the opportunity to directly influence history during that time – and thus, in turn, the fate of those humans born in that year. Analogous to the characteristics of the respective animal symbol, and by means of your date of birth, you too can read those characteristic traits that may – or may not – apply to you. 1921, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005—People born in the Year of the Rooster are deep thinkers, capable, and talented. They like to be busy and are devoted beyond their capabilities and are deeply disappointed if they fail. People born in the Rooster Year are often a bit eccentric, and often have rather difficult relationship with others. They always think they are right and usually are! They frequently are loners and though they give the outward impression of being adventurous, they are timid. Rooster people’s emotions like their fortunes, swing very high to very low. They can be selfish and too outspoken, but are always interesting and can be extremely brave. They are most compatible with Ox, Snake, and Dragon. This beautiful two piece set comes in its original mint issued presentation case with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Described as the most fearless of New Zealand’s birds, standing its ground in any confrontation. Fearless predators and remarkable hunters they are capable of taking prey up to six times their own body weight. Worldwide, falcons are renown as amazing birds able to reach speeds of up to 130 miles per hour, with an eyesight eight times more powerful than humans. The New Zealand female falcon is larger than the male. A South Island female can weigh up to 650 grams, while the males weigh in at around 250 grams. These beautiful and unique creatures are declining in the wild. Fewer than 5,000 individuals remain even though they have been fully protected for the past three decades. Of these, only 450 pairs remain on New Zealand’s North Island. Beautiful Brilliant Uncirculated Five Dollar crown was issued by authority of the government of New Zealand and is sold out at the mint. It has become exceedingly scarce in the secondary market as well. This coin would make a great gift for any wildlife lover or collector of world coins.
Who would think that the common crow is first cousin to this exotic creature, the Bird of Paradise, depicted on the reverse of this extraordinary world coin? Magellan and his crew certainly wouldn’t have. When his expedition brought this bird of sumptuous plumage back to Europe “Paradise” was quickly attached to its name. The male of the species is the show-stopper with his fiery orange and red head-dress and coat, and his frenzied and complex courtship dance. He is also one of the most polygamous of birds. If you are a collector of world coins with an interest in birds or the environment then this unique world coin with its prism applique of a Bird of Paradise is for you!
Beautiful coin and currency set featuring hummingbirds. Consists of two Crisp Uncirculated banknotes from Suriname and Brazil as well as a Brilliant Uncirculated coin from Trinidad and Tobago. Would make a unique gift for collectors of wildlife or world coins and/or currency.
