RE: COINS: SYMBOLS OF LIBERTY OR TYRANNY

in #money7 years ago

Nice! enjoyed your perspective on the symbolism in the US coins. There is also hidden symbols such as the Fasci on the Dime opposing mercury. The symbol of intelect on one side and the symbol of fascism on the other. And then there is Darius. Whole books could be wrote on the symbolism in his carving.

Sort:  

Hey thanks @andre-ager ...you are already on point. If there was some interest shown I was intending to go into, in future posts, the Washington D.C. correlations to Rome, the use of the Fasci, etc. The Darius relief is something I should read up on more.

Probably because people (or the way they think) haven't really changed that much over time... I read a little bit about the history of salt and how it shaped many of the methods used to tax the citizens and distribute wealth (unevenly) throughout history, from the Chinese to the British it was still a very similar scheme but comes in different guises.

Another very enjoyable post to read through, and I wonder if there is going to be any change in the mindset of people with the emergence of cryptocurrency as another 'new' force shaping the economy...
