    King Armah of Axum - Ancient Monarch

    No. 40

    Africa, Ethiopia
    The Grand Nagus King Armah of Axum
    (Ashama ibn Abjar) r.(600-630 AD)

    Probably the best example that exists. Superior to BMC example.
    This king is recorded in the Islamic tradition as the monarch in Africa that hid the early Muslims from persecution. The great prophet for told the death of this hero king before before word of his death was made known.

    MINE!

    The euro was introduced in 2002, but their mintage began a few years earlier. Some countries, like Italy, put on all their coins 2002 date, others, such as Spain, instead put the actual date of mintage....2000 in this case ;)

    Ummm, I guess Eddie-Jr abdicated, so he doesn't get any mention at all, or what? (super-cool story though, eh?)

    => yup, he abdicated to go chase some American-tail ... ahhh, a classic made for TV movie!!

    NOTE => sadly, I don't have any premade/intended coins, but I do have his portrait on a few old bills (awww, I love old paper-money!!)
