The Bird's the word



In a little over two minutes, The Trashmen changed the face of rock and roll forever.
"Surfin' Bird" reached #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. It is a combination of two R&B hits by The Rivingtons, "Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow" and "The Bird's the Word".
You can go to You tube to hear it

 

Really nice coins. I never knew there were so many cool birds used on coins.

Nice guy. A little eccentric, but that is just the California charm.

here - it has a mixture of other images, but injoy

 

I always thought this set from the British Virgin Islands was the best.

This little Jamacian is also very nice.

 

The top needs to be a little clearer

 

They all have the same obverse image of the queen on them, I have some single pictures of the coins.

Birds from South Africa

 

A few more birdies..... :hail:

 

That 5c brings back some memories.

 

Beautiful coins. Inspired me to share a few pics too. These are all struck by Franklin Mint with the exception of Bird Day...developed by Franklin Mint but by that time they no longer minted in-house.

 

Wish I had some pics of the Franklin Mint 1970's Gilroy Roberts Birds Medals. They did 5 per year.
