Coins featuring Cannabis Sativa

The coin issued by authority of the Government of the West African Republic of Benin is bound to create quite a stir among collectors and non-collectors alike. As the first in a series of “Famous Plants of the World”, the 100 Central African Franc denominated Legal Tender coin features Cannabis Sativa, colloquially known as Ma*****na, Pot, Mary Jane, W**d, Grass, etc.
The coin releases the distinct aroma of Ma*****na, although we have been assured that the aroma comes from a synthetic additive and not from the plant itself. This process can be repeated approximately forty times before the smell disappears.

Located just outside the tourist district of Thamel is the shrine Wasya Dya - toothache deity , otherwise known as the Bangemudha ('bange' means crooked and 'mudha' means a log of wood or a wooden stool) , covered with nailed coins. Also called Killagarh, the numbers of nails that are hammered represent the number of suffering teeth. Legend has it that Wasya Dya first came to Kathmandu to watch the dances of Naradevi and stayed so long that he took root as a great tree. Today all that is left of the ancient tree is this gnarled section of wood, considered endangered.

Toothache sufferers seeking a cure have driven hundreds of nails into a slab of wood here. Opposite, under a roof, a piece of wood is punctured with thousands of nails around a tiny gilded image of Vaisha Dev, the god of toothache. To plant a nail here is to get rid of pain by pinning down all evil spirits and influences. If this folk remedy doesn’t work, the nearby lane is filled with dentists’ parlors left and right.

"Clipping" is not just an offense in football..

Before they were made by machines, coins weren't perfectly round. They also didn't have reeded (grooved) edges. This made it easy for people to shave off pieces of precious metal. After "clipping" a coin this way, people then illegally spent the coin for its original value. Some people were even put to death for this crime in 17th century London.
