2015 Panama Pacific International Exposition Centennial. It has been 100 years since the Panama Canal was opened and the nine-month long exposition in San Francisco that followed shortly thereafter. Although the official purpose of the exposition and its location was to celebrate the canal and the years it tool to complete, but unofficially – the success of the rebuild after the great earthquake of 1906 was on the forefront of exhibition-goers minds. There was a half dollar, one dollar gold, two and a half dollar gold, and two different fifty dollar gold coins. The general subject of each of the fifty dollar gold coins was the same, what changed was that one of the coins was round and the other was octagonal in shape. The beauty and intrigue of the octagonal shaped “Pan-Pac” gold coin has held the attention of the public for generations. Celebrating the Centennial of the Panama Pacific Exposition. The selective gilt parts of the coin represent the round coin, and the additional silver elements of the design give shape in tribute to the octagonal design. Precious metals markets are fluid.

A numismatic masterpiece made of seven amazing 999 silver coins which honor the great holland painter Van Gogh. Issued by Niue Islands, the coins celebrate the 125th Anniversary of the Sunflower paintings, probably his most famous paintings. Mintage extremely limited to 500 set worldwide! The rectangular shape of each coins calls to mind an artist’s tableau or canvas, and reproduces seven’Sunflowers’ masterpieces by Vincent Van Gogh in full color. The coin obverse depicts the image of Her Majesty Elizabeth II, at the sides, semi-circular inscription: NIUE ISLAND (issuer). At the bottom the face value: 5 DOLLARS. Sunflowers The reverse features Van Goghs masterwork. Vase with Twelve Sunflowers, from the famous Sunflowers series of paintings, is shown in full color. This particular painting is held in the collection of the Neue Pinakothek in Munich, Germany. Vincent Van Gogh, A Disturbed Genius Van Gogh was born in Zundert, the Netherlands in 1853. The tumult of his life is the stuff of legend, having entering the popular consciousness through books, plays, movies and song. Van Goghs relationship with his brother Theo, the effect that he and Paul Gauguin had on each others work, and his descent into madness (including cutting off part of his ear), culminating in his suicide, have all been documented and analyzed for over a century. The 1956 Hollywood motion picture Lust for Life, starring Kirk Douglas as Van Gogh and Anthony Quinn as Gauguin, and directed by Vincente Minnelli, won three Academy Awards. Don McLeans song Vincent, which opens with the phrase, Starry, starry night… From 1971 was an international pop hit. Despite his short and tragic life, Van Gogh was a prolific artist. It is an absurd irony that Van Gogh created over 2,000 works of art (including about 900 paintings and about 1,100 drawings and sketches), none of which can be had for less than six figures, and yet during his lifetime he managed to sell only one. Many art historians now consider Van Gogh to be the first creator of Outsider Art, nearly a century before the term was coined. Perhaps the most famous painter in the world, Vincent Van Goghs style is at once unique and instantly recognizable. Often classified as a Post-Impressionist, but not neatly fitting into any labeled category, his vibrant colors and bold brush strokes transcended Impressionism, setting the stage for new ways of picturing the world, including Expressionism, Fauvism and Modernism. The item “VINCENT VAN GOGH Sunflowers 125th Anniversary 7 Silver Coins Set 5$ Niue 2013″ is in sale since Wednesday, February 12, 2014.
