Bosnia And Herzegovina Wild Horses 500 Dinara Coin 1995 BU
$14.99Wild horses are descendants of Spanish horses brought to the New World in the 1500’s by the Conquistadors. In the 1800’s, the Spanish stock began to mix with European horses — favored by the settlers, trappers and miners — that had escaped or been turned out by their owners. The wild horses were in demand until tractors and other mechanical means replaced them. Then, they were pushed back into the most arid, hostile public lands that are left. Yet they still survive!

Bosnia And Herzegovina Chinese Horse 1 Suverena Coin BU
$14.99The long-standing Chinese horse culture is characterized by its profoundness and extensiveness. With a brilliant and advanced horse culture, China was among the first nations to raise horses. More than 5,000 years ago, Chinese people began using carts pulled by horses. During the Zhou Dynasty (about 1100-221BC), horses were generally divided into six categories: the stud horse, military horse, ceremonial horse, post horse, hunting horse and fatigue horse. A relatively complete horse administration organization had been built up in the Qin and Han dynasties (221BC-AD220). About 300,000 horses were raised in the frontier northwestern regions in the Han Dynasty (206BC-AD220), and at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty (618 – 907) the number increased to 700,000, with the administration having been greatly improved. More than 7,000 fine breeds of horses were introduced from remote western regions to improve the quality of military horses. The thriving of horse breeding not only played an important role in national defense, but also propelled cultural communications between China and other nations in the west.

French Indochina French WWII Aluminum Coin Folio And COA
$14.99This coin is genuine money of French Indochina from World War II. The demands of fighting the war strained the supplies of traditional coinage metals for many countries. A number of mints experimented with the use of other metals such as steel and zinc. The minting of this coin in aluminum coincided with the beginning of a great expansion in the use of aluminum as an acceptable coinage metal. A large number of developing countries throughout the world are currently using aluminum as a metal of choice for their smaller denominations. The hole in this coin has been influenced by the traditional Chinese round coin with a square hole that was in use for more than two thousand years. Those holes were originally used as an aid to manufacture and rope together large numbers of coins for larger transactions in the absence of abundant precious metal supplies. This example of ancient innovation meets modern innovation and would make a meaningful addition to your world coins collection.

Triceratops was discovered by John Bell Hatcher in 1888, named by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1889 and its acceptance as a legitimate dinosaur came when an intact skull was found. The sturdy nature of the animal’s skull has ensured that many examples have been preserved as fossils, allowing variations between species and individuals to be studied.
