The coins are carefully sawn out by Karsten Schienagel (Bonn) and Thomas Jaekel (Dresden) and are intended as pieces of jewelry. Left: Cape Verde (group of islands off the northwest coast of Africa), 1 Escudo, iron core/brass, coated very thinly with gold in Germany for better processing. Middle: Tokelau (three coral atolls in the South Pacific, one of the most remote areas in the world), 1 cent, copper. Right: Fiji / Fiji (large archipelago in the South Pacific), six pence, silver plated. For these countries, a certain economic importance arises from the sale of coins and stamps. There are many other examples of this in the collection.
