China Lunar Series Zodiac Year Of The Rooster Color Proof

$19.99

Over the years I have handled many Chinese Lunar Series pieces, but these are among the nicest I have ever seen. —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.

China Year Of The Rooster 2 Colored Medal Set 2005 Box and COA

$24.99

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.

Democratic Rep Of Congo Prism Bird Of Paradise 2004 5 Franc Coin Colored Proof

$39.99

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!

Gibraltar Preserve Planet Earth Series Eagle 1994 One Crown Uncirculated

$14.99

Eagles are large predatory birds that have been symbols of power, courage, and immortality since ancient times. The more than 50 species all belong to the HAWK family, Accipitridae, order Falconiformes. Eagles inhabit all major land regions except Antarctica and New Zealand. Although once abundant, some eagles are becoming rare and face extinction. One rare species is the bald eagle, Haliaeetus leucocephalus, the national emblem of the United States. Although protected by law, some large eagles are killed by farmers and gamekeepers or captured for use in falconry. In addition, the bald eagle, like other birds, has been affected by the widespread use of pesticides that, ingested, can weaken eggs.

Isle Of Man Preserve Planet Earth Series Razorbill 1996 One Crown Unc

$16.99

The Razorbill is a bird of the temperate North Atlantic and adjacent parts of the Arctic Ocean. They breed on both sides of the Atlantic and in the east they breed as far south as Brittany (France), north to Svalbard and east to the White Sea in north-west Russia. Razorbills breeding in Britain and Ireland winter along the Atlantic coast of Europe from southwest Norway to Iberia and North Africa, and into the western Mediterranean. Immature Razorbills move significantly further away from their natal colonies than do adults and generally further south, though occasionally they stray west as far as Greenland and the Azores. Razorbills breed mainly on small ledges or in cracks of rocky cliffs and in associated screes, and on boulder-fields. Rarely, colonies have been found up to 1000 feet inland. Razorbills are usually associated with colonies of other seabirds, and small numbers scattered among large concentrations of Common Guillemots and Black-legged Kittiwakes can easily be overlooked. Razorbill ‘nest’ sites are usually hidden from view, but the presence of a colony is clearly indicated by the attendance of off-duty birds standing close by.
