              NATURAL FUNCTIONS OF COIN

.

Care must be taken to handle the COPPER IRIDIUM COIN with rubber-gloved hands. Touch by the human body is known to sometimes "discharge" a  coin. Apart from that, any material that emits radiation could be potentially harmful to health.

 

Following tests has done

 

1) If the COIN is immersed in a transparent tumbler or beaker of water, small silvery white bubbles (Mercury Bubbles)are seen on both surfaces of the coin. The bubbles form on the surface and cling to both surfaces of the coin. This issignificantasbubbles are indication that the radiation is being emitted by the coin.

 

2) When the COIN is immersed in cold water, a minor rise in temperature may be noticed in the first 15 minutes. This may vary from 3 degree to 4 degrees Celsius.  To negate or neutralize the effect of room temperature, it is recommended that frigid water from a refrigerator be used.

 

3) When the COIN is immersed in normal mineral water, a minor rise in temperature may be noticed in the first 20 minutes. This may vary from 1 degree to 1.5 degrees Celsius.  

 

 

4) When the COIN is  taken close to a TV screen while it is on, the program reception is seen to be disturbed causing static-like sounds, diffusion of image and formation of lines across the screen. This happens most often only if the COIN is held constantly in front of the screen for sometime, upto one minute  to three minute.

COPPER COINS-AN IMPORTANT MILESTONE

BRITISH INDIA COINS-EAST INDIA COMPANY

British trading posts in India were first established by the East India Company (EIC) early in the seventeenth century, which quickly evolved into larger colonies covering a significant part of the subcontinent. Early settlements or factories included Masulipatnam (1611) and Madras (1640) in the south, Surat (1612) in the west, and modern-dayKolkata (1698–99) in the east.^[1][2] These colonies gave rise to Madras Presidency, Bombay Presidency, and Bengal Presidency, and each Presidency had a separate coinage and monetary system. In 1835, the EIC adopted a unified system of coinage throughout all British possessions in India and the older Presidency system was discontinued. After the Indian Rebellion of 1857, control of EIC territories passed to the British Crown.^[3] Coinage issued after 1857 were under the authority of monarch as India became part of the British Empire. There was a transition period after India gained independence on 15 August 1947, and the first set of republic India coins were issued in 1950.

Coinage under the British can be divided into two periods: East India Company (EIC) issues, pre-1858; and Imperial issues struck under direct authority of the crown. The EIC issues can be further subdivided into two subcategories: the Presidency issues, which comprise separate Madras Presidency, Bombay Presidency, and Bengal Presidency issues; and uniform coinage for all British territories from 1835 to 1858. Imperial issues bear obverse portraits of Queen Victoria (dated 1862–1901), Edward VII (dated 1903–1910), George V(dated 1911–1936), and George VI (dated 1938–1947). No British India coins were issued during the brief reign of Edward VIII.

POST COINAGE SYSTEMS

Punch-marked coins are a type of early Coinage of India, dating to between about the 6th and 2nd centuries BC.

The first coins in India were minted around the 6th century BC by the Mahajanapadas of the Indo-Gangetic Plain, and certainly before the invasion of Alexander the Great in the 4th century BC. The coins of this period were punch-marked coins called Puranas, Karshapanas or Pana. Several of these coins had a single symbol, for example, Saurashtra had a humped bull, and Dakshin Panchala had a Swastika, others, like Magadha, had several symbols. These coins were made of silver of a standard weight but with an irregular shape. This was gained by cutting up silver bars and then making the correct weight by cutting the edges of the coin.^{[citation needed]} They are mentioned in the Manu, Panini, andBuddhist Jataka stories and lasted three centuries longer in the south than the north (600BCE-300CE)".^[10]

• Shurasena
• Surashtra^] Early coins of India (400 BCE—100 CE) were made of silver and copper, and bore animal and plant symbols on them.

Indian Coins and Power

INDIAN COINS

Coins provide not only evidence of art and economy, but also a wisdom for understanding the history and politics of a nation. As a means of communication, they speak to the political and religious ideologies that underpinned a ruler's or state's claim to power. Coinage ofIndia, issued by Imperial dynasties and Middle kingdoms began anywhere between 6th century BCE to 1st millennium BCE, and consisted mainly of copper and silver coins in its initial stage.^[1] Scholars remain divided over the origins of Indian coinage.^[2]

Cowry shells was first used in India as commodity money.^[3] In recent discoveries punched mark 'Mudras' (Coins) of stone have been found in lost city of Dwaraka. Which is said to be existed at least 5,000 years ago. The Indus Valley Civilisation dates back between 2500 BC and 1750 BC.^[4] What is known, however, is that metal currency was minted in India well before the Mauryan Empire (322–185 BCE),^[5] and asradio carbon dating indicates, before the 5th century BCE.^[6]

The practice of minted coins spread to the Indo-Gangetic Plain from West Asia. The coins of this period were called Puranas, Karshapanasor Pana.^[7] These earliest Indian coins, however, are unlike those circulated in West Asia, were not disk-shaped but rather stamped bars of metal, suggesting that the innovation of stamped currency was added to a pre-existing form of token currency which had already been present in the Mahajanapada kingdoms of the Indian Iron Age. Mahajanapadas that minted their own coins included Gandhara, Kuntala,Kuru, Panchala, Shakya, Surasena and Surashtra.^[8]

The tradition of Indian coinage was further influenced by the coming of Turkic and Mughal invaders in India.^[1] The East India Company introduced uniform coinage in the 19th century CE, and these coins were later imitated by the modern nation states ofRepublic of India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh.^[9] Numismatics plays a valuable role in determining certain period of Indian history

MINTING TECHNOLOGY

Coins were first made of scraps of metal. Ancient coins were produced through a process of hitting a hammer positioned over an anvil. The Chinese produced primarily cast coinage, and this spread to South-East Asia and Japan. Relatively few non-Chinese cast coins were produced by governments, however it was a common practice amongstcounterfeiters. Since the early 18th century and before, presses (normally referred to as mills in coin collecting circles) have been used in the west, beginning with screw presses and progressing in the 19th century towards steam driven presses. The first of these presses were developed in France and Germany, and quickly spreading to Britain. Modern minting techniques use electric and hydraulic presses.

The type of mintage method (being hammered, milled or cast) does limit the materials which can be used for the coin. For example, antimony coins, (which are very rare) are nearly always cast examples, because of the brittle nature of the metal, and thus it would break if deformed, which is a key part of the milling and hammering process..

Antique Coins and Metals

Earlier Coins

All western histories of coins begin with their invention at some time slightly before or after 700 BC, in Aegina Island,^[1] or, according to others, in Ephesus, Lydia, 650 BC.^[2]Ancient India in circa 6th century BC, was one of the earliest issuers of coins in the world.^[3]

Since that time, coins have been the most universal embodiment of money. These first coins were made of electrum, a naturally occurring pale yellow mixture of gold and silver that was further alloyed with silver and copper.

Also, the Persian coins were very well known in the Persian and Sassanids era. Most notably, in Susa and in Ctesiphon.

Some of the most famous and widely collected coins of antiquity are Roman coins and Greek coins.

The Byzantine Empire minted many coins (see Byzantine currency), including very thin gold coins bearing the image of the Christian cross and various Byzantine emperors.

A tomb of the Chinese Shang Dynasty dating back to the 11th century BC shows what may be the first cast copper money Tong Bei. Coinage was in widespread use by theWarring States period and the Han Dynasty.

Some of the earliest coins were beaten at the edges to imitate the shape of a cow, in indication of their value. Most coins are circular but some were rectangular. Also a lot of coins, especially in China had a hole through the center so they could be tied on to a string.

Some of the earliest coins to be made purely from silver and gold were the silver Dirham and gold Dinar in the early Islamic Caliphate from the 7th century.

Silver and gold coins are the most common and universally recognized throughout history, even today. Mints around the world still make millions of gold and silver coins, including the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf, the American Gold Eagle, and the Australian Nugget. Copper, nickel, and other metals are also common, but in lower denominations..
