Golden Monuments
This coins serie shows a range of famous monuments all over the world, we call these the Golden Monuments. A monument is a type of structure either explicitly created to commemorate a person or important event or which has become
important to a social group as a part of their remembrance of historic times or cultural heritage, or simply as an example of historic architecture. Monuments have been created for thousands of years, and they are often the most durable and famous symbols of ancient civilizations. Prehistoric tumuli, dolmens, and similar structures have been created in a large number of prehistoric cultures across the world, and the many forms of monumental tombs of the more wealthy and powerful members of a society are often the source of much of our information and art from those cultures. Monuments are also often designed to convey historical or political information. They can be used to reinforce the primacy of contemporary political power.
