The Twelve Olympians in the Zodiac - Ares & Scorpio Samoa 0.20 $ 2021 Gold plated Copper/Nickel coin
Face value: 0.2 $
Issuing country: Samoa
Weight: 25 g
Diameter: 40 mm
Scorpio is the second Mars sign, and the one that most relates to Ares: while the fiery aspects of Aries might relate to him to some extent, it’s the more emotional Scorpio that resonates closer to him and his primal nature. As the later Autumn sign, Scorpio is related to Winter’s start, and thus to sunset-like conditions: as the Sun dims, so does life. Scorpio is defined by it’s loyalty bordering on possessiveness, as well as a rather strong impulsive nature but consciously made subtle or even outright hidden. Ares displays a surprising amount of loyalty to his family, even when most of Olympus doesn’t like him very much, and while numerous, his affairs are occult, unlike Zeus’ or Apollo’s. This reflects water as darkness: driven by strong impulses, but with the element of mystery and hidden nature. Due to Scorpio’s vindictiveness and hidden nature, it is often considered the most malign of the signs, just as Ares is the most distrusted of the Olympians, but neither are “evil” and while unpleasant they are necessary for the inner workings of nature. Darkness is after all important to health in it’s Melatonin friendliness, especially when it’s connected to water.

3. coin from the series “Fauna and Flora of Slovakia”.
Obverse:
The obverse of this euro collector coin shows a lynx kitten on the left side and an adult lynx on the right side. Below the adult are the mint mark of the Kremnica Mint (Mincovňa Kremnica), consisting of the letters ‘MK’ placed between two dies, and the stylised letters ‘TL’, referring to the obverse designer Tomáš Lamač. The name of the issuing country ‘SLOVENSKO’ and the year of issuance ‘2022’ are inscribed along the upper left edge and part of the upper right edge. Below them is the Slovak coat of arms. The denomination and currency ‘5 EURO’ appear in the lower part of the design, above two lynx paw prints at the bottom edge.
Reverse:
On the reverse, filling the left and centre of the design, is a lynx’s head in profile. To the right of the image, on two lines, is the lynx’s scientific name ‘LYNX LYNX’, and below it are the stylised letters ‘LR’, referring to the designer of the reverse side Roman Lugár. Inscribed along the lower right edge is the lynx’s name in Slovak ‘RYS OSTROVID’.
‘The tiger of our forests’, ‘the phantom’: these are names that have been given to Slovakia’s largest wild cat, the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx). As an adult, the male weighs 24 kg on average and the female around 4 kg less. In the wild, the lynx can live for up to 17 years. The lynx’s particularly typical and unmistakeable features include tufts of hair on its ears, a black-spotted coat, and bobbed tail. It has excellent eyesight (as referenced in the second part of its Slovak name ‘rys ostrovid’) and superb hearing, but a less developed sense of smell. Generally living and hunting individually, the lynx is agile and can jump well and far. The lynx is in fact a very shy animal that never attacks humans. In the past, the lynx was hunted by the nobility for its valuable pelt and its claws were used in folk medicine. It used to be severely persecuted and was almost hunted out of the territory of what is now Slovakia, surviving until today only in small numbers in the central northern part and in the Eastern Carpathians. Since 1999 the lynx has had year-round protected status in Slovakia. As well as being a treasure of the country’s natural heritage, lynxes in Slovakia are also a source population for efforts to strengthen the species’ presence in other European countries.

The German government has decided to mint a €5 collectors’ coin entitled “Marmelade hoverfly”, to be issed at 13 June 2024. It is the seventh coin issued as part of the “Wonderful world of insects” series, which will see a total of nine coins with partially coloured motifs issued over the period 2022-24. The series is intended to bring into focus – especially in light of current developments (insect extinction) – a special group of animals that make up a significant part of our natural heritage.
The €5 collectors’ coin “Marmelade hoverfly” is made of a cupronickel alloy. It weighs 9.68g, measures 27.25mm in diameter and will be available both in mint condition and with a proof-like finish. The mint condition coins will be brought into circulation at their face value (€5). The collector quality coins with a proof-like finish will be higher than their face value and will be issued by the Münze Deutschland (Germany’s official sales agency for collector coins).
The coin was designed by Anna Martha Napp, an artist based in aus Maßlow (picture side), and Andre Witting, a Berlin-based artist (reverse).
The reverse, which will be used for all coins in the series, features an eagle, the words “BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND”, the value and denomination, the year 2024, the twelve stars of Europe and the letter “F” for the State Mint of Stuttgart.
Its smooth edge is engraved with the inscription: “WUNDERWELT INSEKTEN” (WONDERFUL WORLD OF INSECTS).

The wheel of the zodiac signs is engraved on the coin's gold-colored crown. One sign stands out from the background because it is larger than the others and has a sandblasted background, different from the smoother one of the others. It is the symbol of the Taurus. A pattern of leaves, mushrooms and crystals, reminiscent of the sign's element, earth, surrounds the imposing bust of a bull. The animal's horns and forehead are adorned with arabesques. The starry sky in the background features the Taurus constellation.
