Flagrant indecency, this coin image will have devastating effects on minds of youngsters who visit this forum! It was nice knowing you, mrbrklyn.
Both woman are fully clothed? I don't see why you are getting so upset over the coin, turn on some cartoons, have you seen those lately? I assure you you will see less clothed woman than this coin. Did you know there is a childs show called "half naked animals"? Hows that for effecting the minds of youngsters...
See this link above the image in first post? Its a place called "eBay", people can buy stuff and get it shipped using postal services, instead of actually buying a plane ticket and traveling in order to make the purchase. Very convenient, plenty of folks here use it, me incuded.
I concur, Tom & Jerry are naked everyday on their shows. And I don't hear any cartoon rights advocacy group yelling "RED" about that.
Yeah, I knew its Belarus when I saw the writing "Arabic Dance". They produce a lot of these "coins": http://www.nbrb.by/engl/CoinsBanknotes/CommCoinTheme.asp?id=21 Few are nice, majority are boring, IMHO. The same with Ukraine and their comem. coinage. I can't imagine anyone would enjoy collecting ALL of them. Some fellow on a Russian forum called this type of coins "editedtokens", and I agree with this definition.
What mint? Belarus has no mint (they don't even have circulation coins) and has its collector pieces made by various European mints. This one was minted by the Mayer Mint, in Karlsfeld, DE. The "Magic of Dance" series is continued this year, with Tango and Flamenco ... Christian
