okay so hello fellow coin click this this is Glenn back with another video
and today we're gonna do some coins from Bhutan and quite frankly these coins are
actually very good they're very nicely designed and they're
actually one of my favorite series and if we have a look at the largest coin oh
God it is a turd over fifty Chatham's and
Andy's actually equivalent to our fifty paisa in India cuz the Nepalese in the
gold trim that's what it's actually called first introduced 1974 he is
actually tied to the Indian rupee so it's about 15 a gold trim it was one
Australian dollar so this one is equal to 1 cent because it's half of Nicole
trim and a lot of these have a lot of religious imagery so here I actually
have some older coins so this video is mainly just about their Neil kornze in
circulation and these ones are actually called Deb's so these are they were half
rupees of of our Koch Bihar that mint when they actually introduced they did
issue silver coins at first sorry sir later on they were turned out to be
bronze like these ones and these are actually equivalent to atropine now I've
got this one there you could see five check drums so let me get a zoom in he's
actually these Debs so okay so on this side just got to check to see which side
is actually on and it's probably gonna be a bit hard to actually know I didn't
so here we have one side of the coin and these are pretty eligible so it's pretty
much just stylized writing that was actually on the original coins
now as you can see we've got the horseshoe in the middle which is also in
the middle there got did two squares on the side let me just get a pen so we've
got the square on the side with the dot there that's their horseshoe in the meal
and it's a crescent moon up there another rectangle there I'll have a
Chris and Dan here which was off on that one then we have this part here long
shops which is this part there and if we look on the have a side okay so let's
see if we can see ya ah here we go found it so how I found it so I looked
at the two crescents up there the one with the dot I know I'm up there which
is this part here then you got the Z which is that part there doctor it's not
it's not on there this parts pretty much off the coin this side you're gonna have
a crescent then we have some it's supposed to be lettering stand here I
can actually distinguish it that's basically what that image is on a
coin it's actually the old coins worth half a rupee and now it's been
downgraded to a five two columns which is uh you know one twentieth of a droop
instead of one half so that's actually that coin this is actually the bronze
coin is actually quite a nice it's the last five checker ions actually minted
in 1979 the earlier coins so we have the five grams tip drums so I don't speak
Tsonga so you know that's a bit confusing and this one was minted in 74
75 has a wheel of Dharma so the destiny will and as you can see it's the same
size as the Indian rupee it's also aluminium on the back we have Jimmy
Tsing Yi when took I know Bouton's a tonal language only
has two tones instead of six like Cantonese um but he was the actual king
at the actual time and as you can see it has Zongo
in Tibetan script and English so let's see five actually very nice coins I love
these then we have the ten so this is a one year issue issued in 1974 only it
has the endless knot the symbol of endless rebirth so if you know in our
Hinduism and Buddhism actually in Bouton's mainly yeah Buddhist countries
but in Buddhism emphasizes rebirth so as you can see there um that just Oct
nomination in song girl you know Tibetan script so if you want to learn how to
read the lettering just look up the Tibetan script it's not like English
stay Gimli have bells and consonants together per letter so it's probably -
mmm something like that I haven't looked it up and on the back we just have Jing
me again as you can see and this is in the same stall as the Union in pacer
that was used at a time although the minting quality is just as
good not too sure where these actual coins actually minted so in 1979 I
showed this coin actually issued these bronze coins in ish you can see that -
the coin and then we have the ten took lumps and this has the old peso coin now
don't have the actual coin with me I do have a son where coach can't find if
this is the actual coin here so this is on Numa star and see the imagery is
actually pretty much the same and that is the one piece not one pacer one piece
from what date is that 1951 it's pretty much the same as that and on
the back you just have a conch shell so that's a sea animal on one of the eight
revered buddhist symbols and that's revered in buddhism probably not too
short actually represents NH can say there's a bronze through and through and
this is 3.6 grams and 20.3 five millimeters and that's quite a beautiful
design now the next corner got is the let's
help each twenty-five share tons so the you know chitons chichi hey tombs and
there actually is a 20 g tombs in aluminium-bronze but i don't actually
have that and this is the 1979 issue i don't have the 1974-75 not yet anyway
and as you can see at the top it actually has the denominations in dongha
and here we have english and the image in the middle is the door towards a
daughter in Cantonese daughter just means thank you so I'm saying that wrong
the a Double Diamond fan of all so here diamonds on the side so double diamond
Thunderball is part of a coat of arms so it's private covered bones and
represents harmony between secular and religious power so they are religious
people yeah the royal family is secular so that will
be where that comes into play and on the back so this is probably the obverse
actually you've reverses the denomination he has golden fishes of
good fortune one has the eye moving input symbols so it's nice this one's
actually overrated there are no mintage because for these coins but you know
these ones they're not too expensive and you're probably looking at about
probably forty five and ten probably bit two to three dollars per coin
40:25 you're probably looking at probably four dollars in that five
dollars in that condition and forty fifty you're probably looking probably
between five and ten dollars so this is
the 1979 there actually was no 50 chair tones issued in 1974 they did issue some
peso coins in the 60s but they would still circulate it so these ones are
actually a bit more expensive on this side we have the eight various Buddhist
symbols okay and inside we have where for Bhutan in zonga so this is actually
it's pretty time and they say the eight symbols so we got the conch shells on
the other coin we have the the fish up there so the two of the symbols that are
revered in Buddhism not to show on the rest I need to look them up on a Dharma
will but that's the value if you're Buddhists you probably actually
recognize these symbols in here is a third one so this is a treasure of ours
and treasure of ours probably contains relics from Buddhist efforts which is
what you call someone who is engaged enlightenment in English in Buddha and
as you can see it's read it so it's on is probably between five and ten dollars
per coin now they do have a one nugget room but unfortunately I don't have that
one and it's actually a very beautiful coin to actually say so here it is here
as you can see it has the 18 was Buddha and on this side
that's an elaborate embroidery when graving off the diamond wheel so that's
actually quite nice and I actually like to get that
so those paddy coins of Bhutan are actually quite a nice series to get if
anyone would like to make a series on these deb coins and after I was actually
gotten more Bhutanese coins because actually she can see they're actually
very beautiful design
there will be nice so a set like that probably costs about fifteen to twenty
dollars if you want to buy two complete set birthday it's actually hard to get a
set of actually all the coins and I own probably costs probably about forty to
fifty dollars I would say I'm sorry if you're into Bhutanese coins I'd this
introduction suits you well and up please just have a awesome coin
collecting time thank you and bye bye
