Palau Endangered Wildlife Anemonefish $1 2011 BU Color!
$34.99Palau – Endangered Wildlife – Anemonefish – $1 – 2011 – Brilliant Uncirculated – Color! – Anemonefish are a unique group of fish that live amongst the tentacles of sea anemones. The anemone’s tentacles sting and paralyze most fish that brush against them. Fortunately, they have a layer of mucus covering their skin that prevents the anemones from stinging them. By seeking shelter amongst the sea anemone’s tentacles, the anemone fish are protected from other predatory fish that might otherwise see them as a meal. They are never found far from the protection of their host anemone. Scientists believe that these fish provide benefits to the anemones as well. The anemonefish drops scraps of food as it eats and the anemone cleans up the leftovers. Very territorial, they drive off butterfly fish and other anemone-eating fishes. Beautiful colored crown, part of the Endangered Wildlife series of coins that has been issued under the authority of the government of the Republic of Palau since 1992.

Tuvalu Young Collectors Pirates Henry Morgan $1 2011 BU Color Coin Display Card
$19.99Tuvalu – Young Collectors – Pirate Henry Morgan – $1 – 2011 – BU Color Coin – Display Card – This coin portrays Sir Henry Morgan, one of history’s most ruthless pirates. Morgan was born to a Welsh farming family in about 1635. Admiral and privateer Morgan made a name for his activities in the Caribbean. He was one of the most successful and pitiless pirates who sailed in the Spanish Main. Notorious for his habit of torturing hapless captives for information, he was knighted for his role in maintaining British interests in the sacking of Panama in 1670. Morgan accumulated several plantations and immense wealth, paid for by his ill-gotten “pieces-of-eight”. Fond of rum, differing reports have Morgan dying of “dropsy” or tuberculosis in 1688. Morgan was buried in Palisades Cemetery in Jamaica. Ironically, the cemetery disappeared when it sank beneath the waves in the earthquake of 1692. Struck by the Perth Mint from aluminium-bronze, the coin is issued as legal tender under authority of the government of Tuvalu and comes on a display card as shown.

The coin’s reverse depicts a representation of Frédéric Chopin, a treble clef and music notes. As well as The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, the design includes the inscription ‘Frédéric Chopin 1810 – 1849’.
