A new coin has been produced at the Perth Mint for the new millennium.
The silver coin has a gold insert of the sun. Twelve rays stretch out from the north to the southern hemisphere of the coloured satellite image of the earth.
An obelisk and a 4 pointed star pierce the sun's rays in the northern hemisphere between the sixth and the seventh ray. The sixth ray terminates near the 33° south latitude.
The border of the coin is circled with Egyptian images and hieroglyphs, including Osiris, Isis and Horus and winged sun discs.
The writing AUSTRALIA 2001 1oz. 999 SILVER is written at the top of the coin.
The top of the first 'A' of Australia (If the computer image is true) is blocked in.
For some reason Gold Corp (The Perth Mint) claims the 4 pointed star on the new millenium coin is the Dog Star. They are wrong, and anyway why would we want the Dog Star on an Australian coin anyway, the ancients considered it to be a harbinger of misfortune and disease.
I suppose symbollically the coin motif could represent a vaccination programme when taken together with Cleopatra's NEEDLE.
It makes me wonder what is in store for humanity very shortly.
A truly Australian image you must agree.
It does however support the Egyptian/Masonic link that I have suggested between Ancient Egypt and Australia.
Another corresponding curiosity I have discovered is when one draws a line across a globe from Perth to Cairo. You will find that it describes an alternative equator at 45 degrees to the present one.
Gosh those Freemasons!
