Talk:Florin (English coin)

message: The front page of the US subscription paper, Coin World, and also at its Website (http://www.coinworld.com/news/cwhl.asp?uID=&hlID=1 but full article is not accessible without a subscription), states clearly that the double florin and double leopard are the same coin (six shillings -- 72 pence). It refers to a discovery made in Great Britain (south of England) in January 2006 -- only the third example found. Is there a mistake there in Coin World or is Wikipedia article on the English florin of 1344 wrong ???
In any event this new discovery may be worth a mention, along with how the first two coins (now in British Museum) were found in 1857.
Each of the three known examples of the "double leopard" (as per Coin World) have slight design differences (varities). In all three examples, the reverse legend in Latin states: IHC TRANSIENS PER MEDIUM ILLORUM IBAT (Jesus passing through the midst of them, went on his way - Luke 4:30 (Latin Vulgate)). This may well be an illusion to Edward's passage unharmed through the midst of the French fleet (and ultimate victory) at the Battle of Sluys in June 24, 1340, in the early stages of what would become known as the Hundred Years’ War. see generally http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/~munro5/MONEYLEC.htm (which refers to double florin as the 72 pence issue) and http://www.finds.org.uk/medievalcoins/late_denoms.php (florin and double leopard are desinated as the same -- 72 pence coin) 15:54, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: They're confused! The Coincraft 1999 catalogue which I refer to clearly lists separate coins:The Half florin or leopard, worth three shillings (36d) - page 187, and the Florin or Double leopard at six shillings (72d) - page 155. If Coin World are saying that the double leopard was the same thing as the double florin (and the link you give doesn't currently point to anything about these coins), then they're just plain wrong. -- Arwel (talk) 19:19, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Baby Washington

message: On 18 October, Andrew Orlowski of The Register singled out this article as an example of how "atrocious" Wikipedia is:
:Bootnote Of the many, many atrocious entries, we'd like to bring one more to the HUAC's attention, and it's our very favorite. As of the time of writing, whoever wrote the entry for soul legend Baby Washington has no idea who she is, but makes a wild guess, then gives up completely with the less-than-helpful advice: "Many have written inacurate information about Washington. She IS NOT "BABY WASHINGTON" from James Brown." (sic).
:Indeed. But note that this entry has been edited no less than seven times and can be found replicated at Biography.com, Answers.com, Reference.com, InfoMutt, The Free Dictionary and hundreds of other sites.
:You've got to love the web. Just bask in that collective intelligence. 
So, let's work on this a bit...
It appears that some of her work was released under Jeanette, which is confusing because she also recorded with a group named the Jaynettes. I started doing a discography based on info from Soulfulkindamuscic.com, but I need to confirm some of this first.
*Actually it was Jeanette Washington that the article was being referred to. The Baby Washington link was redirected to here by me after I did some looking up. There seem to be two listed Jeanette Washingtons - one originally Justine, and another I'm not so sure about. A lot of sources say they are different, but look at Talk:Jeanette Washington to see more on that. - Master Of Ninja 15:42, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Byzantine coinage

message: How widely circulated was this coinage, was in used in the West or the East?
It was issued in the East of the Roman Empire and its wide circulation depends on the Period, sometimes from india, the Ukrain, scandinavia, North Africa and Britan. Enlil Ninlil 05:14, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: The increasingly concave shape of Byz. coins from the 11th C, onwards was not for "easier stacking."
As the coinage was debased, there was a tendency to spread the same amount of metal over a larger area (in numismatic jargon a "thinner flan of larger module,") to make a more impressive show. At the same time, the debased alloys became harder and more brittle (compared with pure gold or silver). The purpose of the thin curved shell was to resist bending and cracking. Grierson (Byzantine Coins, 1982) was probably the first to point this out: “By that time [c. 1100] the coins were also concave, which rendered them less liable to bending or crumpling.” 68.100.225.237 (talk) 18:15, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Roman Republican currency

message: As this term is used in this article, that means "a long-eared, slow, patient, sure-footed domesticated mammal, Equus asinus, related to the horse, used chiefly as a beast of burden." Correct?
This may seem like a silly question, but "Before the introduction of coinage in Italy the two important forms of value in the economy were sheep (pecus), from which the Latin word for money (pecunia) is derived, and irregularly shaped pieces of bronze known as aes rude (rough bronze) which needed to be weighed for each transaction."
That is the barter system.

thread_title:  Euro v.s. euro 

message: I don't understand this page at all. First, it seems to include some names of coins, such as 10 centimes. This does not seem to fall into the category of "currencies replaced by the euro." "Franc" is the name of a currency; "10 centimes" is the name of a coin.
The WWII coins are even more unfathomable to me, as the description says "and directly preceding the euro." I would think that any person consulting this page would be looking for the currency names that were actually the official currencies of the countries in question, that were eliminated when the euro was adopted by those countries. If names and denominations of coins belong in this list, isn't the list woefully incomplete? And if the list were complete in that sense (which I can't comprehend), wouldn't it be much harder to find the simple answer people would come to this page for, such as "Italian Lira?"
