Coins from Bhutan – “Earth of the<\/p>\n
Thunder Dragon”<\/p>\n
Buddhism is of great importance not only in everyday<\/p>\n
life of the Bhutanese, but is also part of the historical<\/p>\n
heritage of the country. Coins of this set Ngultrum<\/p>\n
contain important symbols of the state religion. It is the<\/p>\n
first set of coins with new subunit spelling<\/p>\n
“Chertums”. The obverse depicts a shankha (a shell that emits the sound of awakening), a pair of<\/p>\n
goldfish (symbol of auspiciousness) and<\/p>\n
Dharmachakra (wheel of teaching) on a lotus flower<\/p>\n
(symbol of pristine purity). The reverse depicts<\/p>\n
eight Buddhism good luck symbols and part<\/p>\n
national emblem – double vajra (symbol<\/p>\n
harmony between religious and secular authorities).<\/p>\n
