The Tibet "Ga-Den" Tangka Was First Issued In The 1850's To Replace
The Increasingly Debased Nepalese Coins That Were In Circulation. The
Coins Feature A Lotus Blossom, Surrounded By Various Buddhist
Symbols. The Ga-Den Tangka Is The One You Are Mostly Likely To Find,
Especially From Its Later Years. Thirteen Major Varieties Have Been
Catalogued. In All, There Are At Least 37 Known Minor Varieties, But
Possibly 50 Or More That Could Be Noted.
The Obverse:
Shows Eight Lucky Symbols From The Lore Of Lhasa
Buddhism:
*
Umbrella Of Sovereignty,
*
Two Golden Fish Of Good
Fortune,
*
Amphora Of Ambrosia,
*
Lotus,
*
Conch Shell,
*
Emblem Of
Endless Rebirth,
*
Banner Of Victory,
*
And A Wheel Of Empire.
These Are Usually Arrayed Around A Central Lotus.
Their Actual Order
And Specific Designs Vary Over Time.
Many Differences Are Recognized
As Varieties By Krause And Mischler.
The Reverse:
The Two Sides Of The Coin Have The Same Orientation.
To Read The
Reverse, Rotate The Coin About Its Vertical Axis.
Starting From The Top,
The Reverse Says:
RNAM RGYA-LA DGAH LDAN PHO BRANG
PHYOGS LAS. Literally, This Means:
"In The Cycle, Rebirth Palace
Direction From." Or, "In The Year From The Palace Of Celestial
Beatitude."
