Canada - “ LION ON THE MOUNTAIN ~ BANKNOTE SERIES. ”   Silver Proof Coin !   Special features: •   The third of four-coins in the Royal Canadian Mint's popular banknote series is an exceptional marriage of art history, engraving, and design, featuring one of history's most ancient symbols—the lion—as it was uniquely and romantically depicted in an early banknote vignette by Canada's Northern Crown Bank. The Northern Crown Bank was purchased by The Royal Bank of Canada in July 1918. •   The face value is framed in scrollwork adapted from early banknote design for a beautifully classic effect. •   Stunning engraving brings to life every detail of the striking lion portrait depicted in the original vignette as the depth and lustre adds to your enjoyment. •   A beautiful gift or collectible for art aficionados and fans of Canadian history, engraving arts, art technique, art history, and the history of banknote design. •   Own a historical artwork of exceptional craftsmanship minted in 99.99% pure silver. Design: More than 30,000 years ago, ancient humans painted prides of hunting lions on cave walls. From these earliest moments, the lion emerged as an emblem of protection, military might, royalty, and supernatural power. Today, the lion is one of the most common heraldic symbols, used in the emblems, arms, and currency of hundreds of nations worldwide. The reverse of this 99.99% fine silver coin features a re-creation of the stunning portrait of a lion taken from an early twentieth century vignette created by the British American Banknote Company. The King of the Jungle is brought to life in painstaking detail as Royal Canadian Mint engravers capture the characteristic line engraving of early banknote design.  Augmenting the masterful work of the original engraving, here the distinctive curve of each muscle and strand of fur, the striking shading of the lion and his dramatic mountainous surroundings, and the minute detail of the scroll work and lettering are taken from original banknote designs and rendered in pure silver.   Packaging:   Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a custom beauty box.   Specifications: ·                                  Mintage:  8500 ·                                  Composition: 99.99% Pure Silver ·                                  Finish: P roof ·                                  Weight (g):   23.17 ·                                  Diameter (mm):   36.07 ·                                  Edge: S errated ·                                  Certificate: S erialized ·                                  Face value: 5 dollars ·                                  Artist: Susanna Blunt (obverse) The vignette chosen for the Royal Canadian Mint's latest Bank Notes series was used for the Northern Crown  Bank's  $50 note, a (proof of which is seen in Pix 9) image provided by the National Currency Collection, Currency Museum,  Bank of Canada.

In a daring plan to end the war, the Screaming Eagles of the 101st Airborne jumped into the heart of Nazi-held Europe -- and began a journey into hell.... In September 1944 -- sixteen weeks after the D-Day invasion -- British Field Marshal Montgomery unleashed a daring attack aimed at the heart of Nazi Germany. For the men of the Screaming Eagles of the 101st Airborne, including nineteen-year-old Donald Burgett, the plan meant parachuting in broad daylight into Holland, securing the road to the Rhine River, and helping the British cross into Germany. It was a mission that sent thousands of young men to their deaths. In this electrifying memoir, Donald Burgett takes us into seventy-two days of close-quarter combat in foxholes and towns against brutal Panzer counterattacks and into the face of the feared German 88mm artillery as the Screaming Eagles push straight into the might of the German Army. Capturing the horror and confusion of war, as ally and enemy move within yards of each other, Burgett tells the story of a legendary fighting unit's bloody victory -- in an epic battle for "a bridge too far."

ISBN: 0312867263 TITLE: Saturn`s Race AUTHOR: Niven, Larry; Barnes, Steven EXCERPT: 1June The sun had fled the sky hours ago, and with it, Xanadu`s winged children. Before it dipped beneath Bombay`s horizon, a thousand kilometers to the east, Lenore Myles had taken one last dive from the central tower. She trusted her reflexes and balance less than the central computer that kept her and a dozen others dancing on the thermals.One long, perfect arc followed another, swooping out to the breakwaters, a kilometer distant from Xanadu`s core. Sensors at the edge of her hang-glider`s batwing read winds and temperatures, coordinated their data with weather satellites sensitive enough to detect a gust of warm breath. Slowly she began the return journey, high above the ring of orchards and gardens, the beaches and ponds, the flowered parks of the floating island called Xanadu.The roofed, tiered hexagons extending from the central tower were each about two hundred meters in diameter. Eight concentric rings, rising toward the center, afforded four million square meters of potential landing room. She had sufficient lift to make it to a little park, four rings out from the central tower.A pair of late picnickers applauded delightedly.Even encumbered by artificial wings, Lenore managed to bow. The couple, an Asian woman and a man with a British sergeant-major`s mustache, were all smiles. ``UC Berkeley?`` the woman asked.``Los Angeles,`` Lenore replied. She shrugged out of the wings and gazed out over the rooftops, down toward the parklands below. Her fellow students were beginning to cluster down there. With the setting of the sun, festivities would begin. She glanced at her watch: just time to take a shower, change, and get down there for the party.She triggered her rented hang-glider`s pickup beacon and waved good-bye to the couple, who had returned to their cheese and wine. Probably waiting for moonrise, she mused. Tropical breezes, perfect weather....A night for romance, and adventure. She felt loose and tingly all over. Adventure`s promise had been kept, and the aftertaste was delicious.Stars and a crescent moon silvered a restless ocean. At the rim of Xanadu`s southwest lagoon, eight hundred of the UCLA science department`s most recent graduates sipped champagne or sparkling fruit juice. Just beyond the breakwater, impossible human shapes walked upon black and silver waves and offered the Council`s greeting.``Welcome to Xanadu,`` a titanic blond woman roared. ``Your minds and hearts are the hope of the world. Today your path of intellectual achievement has reached a crossroads.`` Her words echoed among Xanadu`s towers. ``Albert Einstein said, `We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.` Contrast this with the words of French philosopher Michel Foucault: `The work of an intellectual is not to mold the political will of others....` ``Lenore debarked from one of the little robot carts and found a waiter with a tray of champagne glasses. The reception was jumping by now, covering one of the promenades between the outer breakwater and the containment ponds, vast arcs of water extending beyond the central ring of floating hexagons. Here parks and playgrounds swarmed with parents and children. A little farther out, fruit trees provided a lilt of citrus on the night breeze.She searched the crowd as she sipped, looking for a particular friendly face. She barely noticed the special effects show, although many of the other graduates gawked. Through some optical trick, the titanic blonde seemed to make intimate eye contact with each individual. ``Who shall lead us to the future, if not the pride of our universities? And what tool will blaze your way, if not intellect? We salute you: your hearts, which brim with courage and commitment, your bodies, so strong and filled with the promise of youth, and most especially your minds, which this day have fulfilled your academic poten
