It's been a while since I posted a silver piece from the land of kangaroos and kiwis ! Ok, let me fix that today with a sexy sheep 🐑
As you can see, on one side we have a standard portrait of King George VI, typical of the time for coins from the parts of the British Empire.
On the other, we got a merino ram:
The Merino is a breed or group of breeds of domestic sheep, characterised by very fine soft wool. It was established in Spain near the end of the Middle Ages, and was for several centuries kept as a strict Spanish monopoly; exports of the breed were not allowed, and those who tried risked the death penalty. During the eighteenth century, flocks were sent to the courts of a number of European countries, including France (where they developed into the Rambouillet), Hungary, the Netherlands, Prussia, Saxony and Sweden. The Merino subsequently spread to many parts of the world, including South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. source
I really dig the simplicity of the coin. Just a sexy dude and a sexy sheep, chilling and minding their own business. Not much fluff or text, other than the bear minimum, like the minting date, country etc. Same applies for the edge of the coin:
Each of these little fellas weights 5.65 g and is made of 0.50 silver, so 2.825 of pure silver.
So..
Who would you bang? Georve VI? The ram? Both? Let me know in the comments below!

Ha! I thought kiwis were from there originally 😂 I stand corrected
That's great; I saw your prior post regarding silver coins as well. I recently shot Aceh Darussalam gold coins from various ages for the compilation of @Keuudeip's book "Dirham: Aceh's Gold Currency." The coins are housed in the @Pedir-Museum's collection.
The book will also feature Spanish silver coins that once circulated in Aceh in ancient times, so do other European silver coins.
I think those Indonesian Sultanate Aceh are cool.
I love the Spanish 8 Reales Pillar Dollars more.

Typical Aceh Darussalam 16th Century, is that your collection? If I may, I'd like to see the back.

Is that what the inscription says? Translation please.
I have never been to Malaysia or Indonesia. This beautiful gold coin was given to me as a gift from a friend for my collection.
You are welcome.

Right. This is written in Arabic.
السلطان العادل - As-Sulthan Al-‘Adil = Fair Sultan > Front side
علاء الدين بن أحمد - ‘Ala’uddin bin Ahmad (King's name) > Back side
We only detected the king's tomb in 2017, his name is engraved on his tombstone inscription. Photo of the inscription on all four sides of his tombstone.
If you are interested in seeing pictures related to his funeral, in 2018 I posted those on Facebook, visit the LINK.

You!
That's a really nice coin I love that ram sheep or wtv the hell it is , all I know is it looks amazing
It's good coin. A nice addition for your collection !
I won't bang either one but I do think the RAM looks nicer than an old man. At least you can take it apart for some wool and meat if things went wrong.
