The Importance of a Diamond’s Color Warna Warna Indah Batu Permata Berlian

 One of the most important factors in determining a diamond’s beauty and value is color.  The more white (or colorless) the specimen is (and less yellow) the better and more sought after the diamond will be.  *Bear in mind this is in regards to the normal market as fancy color stones are in a class by themselves.  The absolute best color you can get is D followed by E and F of which all are considered colorless.  The next class of colors is known as near colorless and would be letter G through J.  The ranges after that are K through M which is faint yellow, N to R very light yellow and the last is S-Z which is called light yellow.  GIA or Gemilogical Institute of American which developed the 4cs has made the grading of diamonds well known and popular.  I find that D through J colored rocks look great but would a consider K or M with a round diamond that had a good cut is
it make up for a lower color.

1837 Liberty Head Hard Times Token

 This post will take a look at an1837 Liberty Head Hard Times Token.  On the front is Lady Liberty flanked by stars on each side with American motto in latin words E Pluribus Unum.  The bottom of the obverse displays the year 1837.  During this period in US history a depression was going on and tokens like this were used as money (hence why it is called a Hard Times token).  On the reverse is the phrase "MILLIONS FOR DEFENSE NOT ONE CENT FOR TRIBUTE."  This was coined by Robert Goodloe Harper in the late 1700s in defiance of a request of bribes by Talleyrand (French Foreign Minister) in order to negotiate.  Apparently this wasn't something out of the ordinary for Talleyrand to request, American diplomats were offended.  The Quasi War occurred shortly afterwards and lasted for a couple of years.

Silver US 1933 Walking Liberty Half Dollar Coin San Francisco Mint

 Silver US 1933 Walking Liberty Half Dollar Coin San Francisco Mint In 1933 the US mint only made silver half dollars in the San Francisco mint.  They made 1.786 million of these Walking Liberty 50 cent pieces in the S mint and this was after a break of 3 years.  The previous year of production for these was 1929.  Silver was continually used comprising 90 percent of this coin or in measurement terms .3617 ounces of the precious metal.  The mintage isn’t that high and they were only made in one mint that year.  This coin was struck in arguably the worse year of the Great Depression and there weren't a large supply of coin minted in general. Walking Liberty Halves began in the year 1916 and I would say their design is the most memorable of any US 50 cent piece in the 20th century.  Certain silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars are keydates can command large premiums especially those with very low mintages (especially in uncirculated grades).  A complete set with every year and mint wo

Greek 20 Drachma Coin from 1976

This post will examine a 1976 Greek 20 Drachma coin which can be looked at in the photographs at the end of this entry.  Its condition appears to be that of extra fine. I rather enjoy the design which has on its front an image of The Parthenon which is an ancient building in Athens, Greece which was built to honor the mythological goddess Athena.  On the bottom of the front is the date and the words: EAAHNIKH AEMOKPATIA which in English means the Greek Democracy.    Also notice the word: APAXMAI which is the name of the currency, in English: Drachma.  The back of this coin has a helmeted Pericles who was a noteworthy politician and general and who was born about 500 years BC.  Pericles contributions to the ancient Athenian Empire were profound, not only from a military standpoint but also from an educational one as he promoted the arts and literature.  This coin is constructed out of a combination of copper and nickel.  Its weight is 11 grams and is diameter measurement: 29 millimete
