2014 Niue Year of The Horse 24k Gold Gilded 5 Ounce Silver Coin – Number 029. It is a Very Popular series of coins and this is the Key to the set. This coin is S p e c t a c u l a r when viewed in-hand. Has the very beginning of T o n i n g at the 9 O’clock position and a Eclipse Spot at the 8 O’clock position that is very faint and Nether distract from the B e a u t y of this Incredible coin. With a Certificate Number of ONLY 029 out of 500 makes it even more desirable. As a Side Note : I did see another of these S u p e r i o r Coins with Light Brown Gold Toning covering nearly All of the Horse on the Right Side and it was the most Stunningly B e a u t i f u l Coin I Have Ever Seen Depicting Horses. This one will most likely (over the next several years) exhibit the same type of t o n i n g as it is starting off in the same colors as the other coin I saw. And NO it was definitely Not For Sale..

Martian Meteorite A Martian meteorite is a rock that formed on the planet Mars and was then ejected from Mars by the impact of an asteroid or comet, and finally landed on the Earth. Of over 61,000 meteorites that have been found on Earth, 132 were identified as Martian as of 3 March 2014. These meteorites are thought to be from Mars because they have elemental and isotopic compositions that are similar to rocks and atmosphere gases analyzed by spacecraft on Mars. On October 17, 2013, NASA reported, based on analysis of argon in the Martian atmosphere by the Mars Curiosity rover, that certain meteorites found on Earth thought to be from Mars were indeed from Mars. The term does not refer to meteorites found on Mars, such as Heat Shield Rock. On January 3, 2013, NASA reported that a meteorite, named NWA 7034 (nicknamed “Black Beauty”), found in 2011 in the Sahara desert, was determined to be from Mars and found to contain ten times the water of other Mars meteorites found on Earth. The meteorite was determined to have formed 2.1 billion years ago during the Amazonian geologic period on Mars.

Odin – Viking God. Odin the “Allfather” was the premier Norse deity, at once a magnetic and polarizing figure whose influence permeated all aspects of society. He was the ruler of Valhalla, the highest level of the underworld and frequently received human sacrifices. In battle, he was a manipulative commander who derived an almost spiritual ecstasy from orchestrating violent, chaotic bloodbaths. He was also a lover of poetry and heavily involved in shamanism, magic and necromancy. Cnut – Viking King King Cnut is remembered for stabilizing England, Denmark, Norway, and parts of Sweden and unifying the regions into one empire from A. Humility was his hallmark trait, often illustrated by the tale of “King Cnut and the Waves, ” wherein Cnut had his throne placed on the seashore as the tide was coming in. Sitting upon his throne, he stretched out his hand and commanded the tide to recede. The ocean responded by continuing its advance, covering the king’s feet and soaking his royal garments. Cnut turned to the small audience accompanying him and said, Let all men know how empty and worthless is the power of kings, for there is none worthy of the name, but He whom heaven, earth, and sea obey by eternal laws. He placed his crown upon a crucifix and never wore it again. Ragnar – Viking Warrior. A legendary Viking warrior and king, Ragnar of Lothbrok is likely an amalgamation of several prominent warriors. He is remembered for leading successful campaigns into France and England, galvanizing Viking armies to battle, and passing on his legacy to his many warrior sons, most notably, Ivar the Boneless. He met his end when he was captured by king Aella of Northumbria and thrown into a pit of snakes. Face value : 2 Dollars. Quality : High Relief, Antique Finish. Mintage : 1,999 Worldwide.

31.1 (1 oz). This beautiful 1 Oz Silver coin, with a real meteorite and yellow Antique Finsh quality, is the second issue of the series “Solar System”. The coin depicts the Mercury surface on both sides, with a concave shape and the insert is a real piece of the NWA 8409 Meteorite. The coin is housed in a prestigious wooden box with Certificate of Authenticity. Extremely low mintage of 686 pieces worldwide! The reverse of the coin depicts the Mercury surface, with very realistic details. What makes this coin unique is a real meteorite called NWA 8409, fallen on Earth in Northwest Africa, inlaid on the coin. On top of the coin the inscription “Solar System Mercury” and on the obverse side the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Mercury Mercury is the smallest planet in the Solar System and the one closest to the Sun, with an orbital period of about 88 Earth days, which is much faster than any other planet in the Solar System. Seen from Earth, it appears to move around its orbit in about 116 days. It has no known natural satellites. It is named after the Roman deity Mercury, the messenger to the gods. Partly because it has almost no atmosphere to retain heat, Mercury’s surface temperature varies diurnally more than any other planet in the Solar System, ranging from 100 K (-173 °C; -280 °F) at night to 700 K (427 °C; 800 °F) during the day in some equatorial regions. The poles are constantly below 180 K (-93 °C; -136 °F). Mercury’s axis has the smallest tilt of any of the Solar System’s planets (about 1/30 of a degree). However it has the largest orbital eccentricity: at aphelion, Mercury is about 1.5 times as far from the Sun as it is at perihelion. Mercury’s surface is heavily cratered and similar in appearance to the Moon, indicating that it has been geologically inactive for billions of years. Mercury is gravitationally locked and rotates in a way that is unique in the Solar System. As seen relative to the fixed stars, it rotates on its axis exactly three times for every two revolutions it makes around the Sun. As seen from the Sun, in a frame of reference that rotates with the orbital motion, it appears to rotate only once every two Mercurian years. An observer on Mercury would therefore see only one day every two years. The item “SOLAR SYSTEM MERCURY NWA 8409 Meteorite Silver Coin 1$ Niue 2016″ is in sale since Sunday, September 18, 2016.

His shoes and white gloves have become recognizable around the globe. Soon after Walt Disney first imagined the character on a train ride from New York to Los Angeles, Mickey officially debuted in the historic 1928 short film. Going on to appear in over 120 cartoons, Mickey became the first animated character to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Mickeys famously shy falsetto voice was originally performed by Walt Disney himself. Mickey Mouse has played almost every role imaginable, from fireman, cowboy, and inventor, through to a plumber. His endearing personality has captured the imagination of cultures and generations around the world. Minnie Mouse is the stylish, lifelong sweetheart of Mickey Mouse. Wearing her iconic red polka dot dress, Minnies personality has delighted generations of fans across all cultures. Mickeys leading lady first appeared in the ground breaking 1928 short film. When a goat inconveniently eats her sheet music, Minnie resourcefully turns the goats tail to generate music, demonstrating her spirited and lovable nature. Minnie has appeared in over 70 cartoons, many of which also feature Mickey Mouse, Pluto and her close friend Daisy Duck. She has two nieces, Millie and Melody. With a history spanning over 85 years, Minnie shines as a star in her own right. Donald Fauntleroy Duck is the most prolific of all the Disney characters in terms of his number of appearances, total screen time, and comic book career. An anthropomorphic white duck, Donald wears a sailor suit with a bow tie, and is known for his short temper. He is a loveable show-off, however, Donalds love of bragging often takes him over his head, usually to hilarious effect. Oh, no, Ive got a bellyache, are eight words from. The Wise Little Hen. (1934) that introduced one of the most popular Disney cartoon characters. Donalds distinctive voice was created by Clarence Nash, who performed the role for 50 years. In 2004, Donald was recognized with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Daisy Duck is a sophisticated cartoon character introduced by Disney in the 1940 short film. Like Donald Duck, Daisy is an anthropomorphic white duck, however, she is more feminine with long eyelashes and ruffled tail feathers. She is often seen wearing a blouse with puffed short sleeves, a matching hair bow, and heeled shoes. Daisy is the graceful, glamorous and loyal best friend of Minnie Mouse. She also shows a strong affinity towards Donald Duck and is very devoted to him. Daisy has appeared in a total of fourteen films, multiple television series, comic stories, and games. Pluto is an iconic cartoon character, who first appeared in Disneys 1930 release. His nature and personality as a tracker dog in this early film was quite different to the friendly pup we know today. However, six months later this all changed as Pluto was presented as Mickeys pet, forging the famous friendship between these characters. Modelled on the English Pointer breed, Pluto is a mustard-colored, medium-sized dog with black ears. His cheerful and adventurous temperament has endeared him to many. As he does not speak, Plutos performance relies on physical humor. This has made him a pioneering figure in character animation, by expressing personality through movement, facial expressions and vocalization. Cast in his own television series in 1937, Pluto went on to appear in 48 cartoons over the following decades. Won an ACADEMY AWARD ® in 1942. Goof is a comical cartoon character created by Disney in the 1932 film. A tall, anthropomorphic dog, Goofy typically wears a turtle neck, waistcoat, white gloves, and a tall hat originally designed as a rumpled fedora. A close friend of Mickey Mouse, Goofy is one of Disneys most popular characters. Characterized as being extremely clumsy, he at times shows surprising intuition and knowledge, albeit in his own unique and eccentric way. Goofys catchphrase is gawrsh! His usual exclamation of surprise, along with a distinctive chuckle. Having featured in television shows and comic books, Goofy was given his own series of shorts during the 1940s, two of which were nominated for ACADEMY AWARDS ®.
