ODD & CURIOUS MONEY
AGGRY BEADS
Aggry beads, also called Milliefiore beads, are
beautiful multi-colored
glass beads that were at one time worth up to 4 times their weight in
gold in Western Africa! The beads are believed have
originated in Venice in the 17th century and traded into Africa. We
have a wide variety of modern tublar beads that are about 25mm long and
round beads about 12mm in diameter. They are very pretty, and
at one time were a very valuable trade good.

MEDIEVAL
ISLAMIC TERRA-COTTA TOKENS
These
unusual terracotta tokens were produced in the Persian Gulf area around
the 11th and 12th centuries A.D. At the time copper coins
were not in production. The tokens were produced by merchants
or money-changers to provide change for small purchases. The
tokens were rarely seen, until a recent hoard was discovered. This
hoard included a number of different types. They all are
small (about 10-14mm), with various Islamic inscriptions on
them. It is an unusual and rarely seen form of money.
