Numismatics is the name given to the study and collecting of coins and medals, and is derived fromnomisma,the Greek word for coin. It is probable that coins were prized for their aesthetic qualities in the ancient world, while their importance in socio-economic development was appreciated by Herodotus, the 5th century Greek historian.

  Hyperinflation around the Globe 
Angola (1991-1999) Angola went through the worst inflation from 1991 to 1995. In early 1991, the highest denomination was 50,000 kwanzas. By 1994, it was 500,000 kwanzas. In the 1995 currency reform, 1 kwanza reajustado was exchanged for 1,000 kwanzas. The highest denomination in 1995 was 5,000,000 kwanzas reajustados. In the 1999 currency reform, 1 new kwanza was exchanged for 1,000,000 kwanzas reajustados. The overall impact of hyperinflation: 1 new kwanza = 1,000,000,000 pre-1991 kwanzas.

  The full guide to Nazi gold and currency war 
This morning’s papers and news-shows are full of the story that in 1939 the Bank of England facilitated the sale of Nazi looted gold, not just once but at least twice during that year. Both times without approval of the British government, despite an attempt to freeze Czech assets. The story of Nazi gold is both fascinating and tragic. We take a look at ‘the greatest robbery of all time’ and draw parallels with the modern day gold migration. What is Nazi gold? Nazi gold is a phrase that refers t

  The Domino Effect – Romania joins Gold Repatriation exodus
Hot on the heals of Hungary repatriating all of its gold reserves from London last October, moves are now afoot in neighboring Romania to do likewise, via a parliamentary bill submitted by Romanian politicians Liviu Dragnea and Serban Nicolae which specifies that only 5% of gold reserves can be kept abroad. Romania’s strategic gold reserves amount to 103.7 tonnes and are managed by the country’s central bank, the National Bank of Romania (NBR), with over 60 tonnes of the Romanian gold (or about

EU Deposit Insurance, a Bank Crisis in Italy and Greece, and the Coming Ban on Cash
Last week we investigated nonperforming EU loans and an EU proposal to freeze accounts if a run on a bank starts. Today let’s investigate the EU’s deposit insurance scheme with the likely result being a ban on cash. On July 19, with little media publicity, the EU Single Resolution Board issued a statement with this exact title: Press Release – Banking Union – Single Resolution Board collects €6.6 billion in annual contributions to the Single Resolution Fund, now reaching €17 billion in total.

'Pretty much ever since Australia sold its gold, it's been on the up'
By Paul Garvey The Australian, Sydney Saturday, July 29, 2017 In a vault deep in the basement of the Reserve Bank's Martin Place headquarters in Sydney sits a hoard of gold bars worth about $US500,000 each — all four of them. The Reserve Bank of Australia now holds almost the entirety of the nation's gold in vaults administered by the Bank of England. To add insult to injury to the nation's gold devotees, the vaults are stuffed full of the redesigned $10 polymer banknotes awaiting official relea

Romania hit by $4.4-billion damage claim over stalled gold mine project
A Toronto-listed mining company is claiming $4.4 billion in damages from Romania at the World Bank's arbitration tribunal, accusing Bucharest of unfairly blocking its $2 billion project to create one of Europe's biggest gold mines and expropriating its assets. Gabriel Resources won a licence in 1999 to exploit the Rosia Montana gold and silver deposits in Transylvania, but was never granted the necessary permits. The company says it has complied with all necessary Romanian and European Union leg

Yesterday, my MUST LISTEN Audioblog started with a discussion of this clip of soon-to-be French President Marine LePen humiliating soon-to-be ex German Chancellor Angela Merkel and soon-to-be ex French President Francois Hollande in front of the European Parliament.  As when she wins, it will be blindingly apparent that Europeans want their sovereignty back, no matter what the cost.  And believe me, the “cost” will be high.  As in, the collapse of the Euro; mass default of hundreds of billions o

Gold Fundamentals Strong As PDAC Looms - Peter Diekmeyer
Gold prices have surged (+8.57% EOD Wednesday) since January. However, one expert says that trend could continue. “Shrinking exploration budgets, a dearth of new high-quality deposits and the “fear trade” will provide continuing upside pressure as the year unfolds,” says Brent Cook, editor of Exploration Insights. “Some gold stocks may be overbought right now, but long-term fundamentals are better than ever.” Cook is little known to the general public, but widely-followed in the globa

A Misery Index was first constructed by economist Art Okun as a way to provide President Lyndon Johnson with a snapshot of the economy.  The original Misery Index was just a simple sum of a nation’s annual inflation rate and its unemployment rate. The Misery Index has been modified several times, first by Robert Barro of Harvard and then b

Trump, Russia and China
Even before he takes office, President-elect Trump is turning the world upside down.It has become clear his attitude towards Russia and China is very different from that of his predecessors. Amazingly, he is already wresting power from the deep state, causing it great resentment, which under Obama, Clinton and the Bushes, ran geopolitical policy. From January, barring accidents the world will not be the same, the establishment up-ended.This short article builds on information available to date a

Central Banks and Governments and their gold coin holdings
Within the world of central bank and government gold reserves, there is often an assumption that these gold holdings consist entirely of gold bullion bars. While this is true in some cases, it is not the fully story because many central banks and governments, such as the US, France, Italy, Switzerland, the UK and Venezuela, all hold an element of gold bullion coins as part of their official monetary gold reserves. These gold coin holdings are a legitimate part of gold reserves since under Intern
