Hi folks,

I am done posting my "new arrivals" (again), for now. There are still a few packages from Europe that I didn't receive yet. The dealers are waiting for export permission.

When I last worked on my website in September 2022, I was creating new website pages. I was posting my Modern World, Italy coins. I assume that I will pick up where I left off. I will probably start creating new website pages later today.

What a stunning Tibetan tangka on your website! Here’s the 1888 Tibetan silver tangka I acquired last year. Struck in an exotic faraway kingdom explorers have long regarded as Shangri-La - the fabled Land of Dreams and Lamaseries, this silver coin features a stylized lotus flower surrounded by the eight auspicious symbols of Buddhism: a victory banner, two fish, a lotus flower, an endless knot, the wheel of law, a parasol, a conch shell and a vase. On the reverse is an eight-petalled wheel/flower within a star.

Tibet, Silver Ga-den Tangka (1½ sho), ND (1888), L&M 628, Rhodes Biv, KM YB13.4, Type B, single line base (NW), aUNC, plain edge, weight 4.49g, maximum diameter 27.0mm, die axis 0°, Dodpal mint, 1888; obverse Eight Auspicious Symbols of Tibetan Buddhism (Victory Banner, Two Fish, Lotus Flower, Endless Knot, Wheel of Law, Parasol, Conch Shell and Vase) clockwise from 12:00, within radiating petals of eight-petalled lotus flower arrayed around circle, beads in inner angles and three beads in outer angles, ornate lotus flower set on double waterline at centre, double linear beaded border surrounding; reverse དགའ་ལྡན་ཕོ་བྲང་ ཕྱོ་ ལས་རྣམ་ རྣམ་རྒྱལ། (Ganden Palace, Victorious In All Directions) clockwise from 12:00, within oval frames of eight-petalled lotus flower arrayed around concave octagon, wavy lines between outer angles, eight-spoked Wheel of Law with three crescents within central hub, double linear beaded border surrounding.

Hi Ser,

Thanks for the information. I took an educated guess regarding what is depicted on that coin. I was close.

I'll probably correct it tomorrow.

That is one of the first ancient coins I ever purchased. I bought it way back in 1998/1999, when I first began collecting ancient coins. I bought it as a "curiosity piece".
