Authenticity Notice This artifact is certified authentic and will be accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity and Provenance. Overview: An exquisite and rare solid silver Viking Age pendant, recovered from a Germanic context. This 55mm artifact showcases advanced Norse silversmithing, featuring a conical head formed by looped silver ribbons, finished with two elongated pendants of tightly coiled silver wire. These “tassel” or “rattle” pendants were high-status accessories worn by Viking and Germanic women, often suspended from brooch chains. The motion of the coiled silver elements was intended to create a subtle sound, believed to ward off evil spirits. The use of high-purity silver wire is consistent with the wealth and metal-working traditions of the late 9th to 11th centuries. Authenticity Check: The silver exhibits a characteristic “horn silver” chloride patina and localized dark sulfide toning consistent with long-term interment in northern European soil. The wire-work shows varied tension and minor irregularities typical of hand-drawn silver wire. No evidence of modern soldering, machine-precision coiling, or artificial aging.

National Museum of Denmark, Copenhagen: Accession No. C12502 (Silver tassel pendants with coiled wire elements, 10th Century).

Is the largest of all kangaroos, the largest mammal native to Australia, and the largest surviving marsupial. It is found across mainland Australia, avoiding only the more fertile areas in the south, the east coast, and the northern rainforests. This species is a very large kangaroo with short, red-brown fur, fading to pale buff below and on the limbs. It has long, pointed earlobes and a squared-off muzzle. Females are smaller than males and are blue-gray with a brown tinge, pale gray below, although arid zone females are colored more like males. It has two forelimbs with small claws, two muscular hind-limbs, which are used for jumping, and a strong tail which is often used to create a tripod when standing upright. The Red Kangaroo lives alone or in small groups called “mobs” (although food shortages can cause them to congregate into larger groups). Each mob is usually made up of two to ten’roos, but sometimes a mob can consist of up to several hundred. Membership of these groups is very flexible, and males (boomers) are not territorial, fighting only over females (flyers) that come into heat. The largest males are dominant, and control most of the matings. When male kangaroos fight, they may appear to be “boxing”. They usually stand up on their hind limbs and attempt to push their opponent off balance by jabbing him or locking forearms. If the fight escalates, they will begin to kick each other. Using their tail to support their weight, they deliver kicks with their powerful hind legs. These herbivores’ legs work much like a rubber band. Males can leap over 30 feet (9 meters) in one leap! Kangaroos are adept swimmers, and often flee into waterways if threatened by a predator. If pursued into the water, a kangaroo may use its forepaws to hold the predator underwater so as to drown it. The Red Kangaroo is too big to be subject to much non-human predation. They can use their robust legs and clawed feet to defend themselves from attackers with kicks and blows. However, dingoes and eagles will kill and eat joeys. Joeys are thus protected in their mother’s pouch. The Perth Mint of Australia employs its own proprietary colorization technology, in which the color is actually sealed on the coin. The vibrant hues and precise execution of the technology create a stunning, full-color portrait on each coin.

The Piazza dei Miracoli, or Miracle Square, is one of the most breathtaking architectural ensembles in the world. Located in the city of Pisa, Tuscany, Italy, this historic plaza showcases masterpieces of medieval architecture that have captivated visitors for centuries. The square derives its poetic name from the miraculous beauty of its four magnificent buildings: the Cathedral (Duomo), the Baptistry, the Leaning Tower, and the Camposanto (Holy Cemetery). The Cathedral itself, officially known as the Cattedrale Metropolitana di Santa Maria Assunta, stands as a pinnacle of Italian Romanesque architecture. Construction began in 1063, and the cathedral’s stunning facade features a harmonious blend of arcaded galleries, intricate marble inlays, and decorative columns. The building represents centuries of artistic vision and craftsmanship, making it a UNESCO World Heritage Site along with its companion structures in the square. The Legendary Leaning Tower. Perhaps most famously, the Miracle Square is home to the Torre Pendente, or Leaning Tower of Pisa. This eight-story marble bell tower has become one of the most recognizable structures in world history. Construction of the tower began in 1173, and its distinctive tilt became apparent during construction, caused by soft ground on one side of the foundation. Rather than diminishing its appeal, this engineering challenge has made the tower a symbol of resilience and has captivated millions of visitors throughout history. The tower’s unintended lean has inspired countless legends and scientific inquiry. In the 16th century, the renowned astronomer Galileo Galilei allegedly used the tower to conduct experiments on gravity and the motion of falling objects-experiments that would later revolutionize our understanding of physics. Whether this legend is entirely factual or not, it underscores the tower’s significance as a beacon of scientific curiosity and architectural marvel. Architectural Splendor and Design. The Baptistry, the third major structure in the Miracle Square, is renowned for its acoustical properties and stunning Gothic and Romanesque architectural elements. The Camposanto, or cemetery, is equally impressive with its graceful arcaded galleries and elaborate frescoes. Together, these four structures create a harmonious composition that exemplifies the artistic and architectural achievements of medieval Italy. The intricate details of the Miracle Square’s marble work, columns, and decorative elements showcase the skill and dedication of medieval craftsmen. The use of contrasting marble colors, the precision of architectural proportions, and the symbolic representations throughout the square make it a living testament to human artistic achievement. This is exactly why the Palau government chose this iconic location as the subject for this stunning commemorative coin. The 2016 Commemorative Coin. The 2016 Pisa Cathedral coin is part of a prestigious series celebrating iconic European architecture and historical landmarks. By choosing the Miracle Square as a subject, Palau honors not only Italian heritage but also celebrates the universal human achievement represented by these magnificent structures. The reverse side of this coin features an extraordinarily detailed rendering of the Pisa Cathedral and its surrounding square. The antiqued finish enhances the visual depth and historical feel of the design, allowing viewers to appreciate every nuance of the architectural elements. From the cathedral’s arched colonnade to the characteristic lean of the tower, the engraving captures the essence of this world-famous complex with remarkable precision. MS70 Grading and Condition.
