Watch List notes:

EASTER ISLAND: Rapa Nui, AE 1000 pesos, 2008, KM-X9a, Ancient Script - Rongorongo Tablet, fantasy pattern essai in pure copper, mintage 30 pieces, PCGS graded MS66 RB. Rongorongo is a system of glyphs discovered in the 19th century on Easter Island that appears to be writing or proto-writing. Numerous attempts at decipherment have been made, with none being successful. Although some calendrical and what might prove to be genealogical information has been identified, none of these glyphs can actually be read. If rongorongo does prove to be writing and proves to be an independent invention, it would be one of very few independent inventions of writing in human history.Private pattern struck at the Patrick Mint. The mint began operating in 1972 and was known for striking mainly tokens until the mint was destroyed in the 2017 Tubbs Fire in the "Northern California Firestorm" along with 5,642 other structures in Santa Rosa, California.
