Siendo Territorio Norteamericano, no tenemos moneda propia, pero, sacamos fantasías numimsmáticas sobre nuestro archipiélago, en nuestra lengua vernácula, el Español, haciendo acto de presencia en el mundo. Este año hemos decidido producir piezas que nos identifiquen con temas de la numismática mundial. Esta pieza celebra la importancia de las Naciones Unidas, a la cual se nos impide pertenecer, a pesar que muchos otros "Commonwealths" y "Free Associated States" dependientes de paises mas grandes, como Australia, Nueva Zelanda, o Inglaterra, ya forman parte desde hacen años, inclusive ex colonias Norteamericanas, como las Islas Marshal y las Islas Palau, cuyos habitantes son ciudadanos americanos, usan el dólar americano, reciben iguales ayudas federales, y cuidao si más, que si vivieran en un estado. Al menos esta pieza ahora sí que nos une a las de otros muchos países que conmemoran la ONU, todas ellas altamente coleccionables.ANVERSO:Su anverso conmemora el Centenario de la famosa Poetiza Julia de Burgos, 1914 - 2014, cuya obra aboga por la libertad, el feminismo, y la igualdad de derechos. Una bandera Puertorriqueña le sirve de fondo como si fuera el Rio Grande de Loíza, al cual compara en su famoso poema con el inagotable llorar de la patria por el sufrimiento ante las injusticias que ella viviera en su época. Hoy dia su obra ha sido reconocida tanto en latinoamérica, como en el propio Estados Unidos, donde su obra, ya traducida al inglés, es fuente de motivación. Su nombre adorna varias escuelas públicas e institutos de alta enseñanza en la Nación Americana, y hasta el propio gobierno federal ha producido un sello postal a su memoria. REVERSO:Muestra el logo de las Organización de las Naciones Unidas, que representa el mundo visto desde el Polo Norte. Le rodea el nombre de la organización, en 5 de los 6 idiomas oficiales. Dejamos el "Ruso" por falta de espacio, tanto como para boicotear su acción de invadir el País soberano de Ucrania. COMPOSICION: Cada pieza mide 24.5mm de diámetro y 2mm de ancho, pesa 7.6 gramos, y posee borde estriado. La tirada total se limitó a 100 piezas enchapadas de 0.999 plata pura. Viene en capsulada de plástico transparente protector contra rayazos, la cual además evita que su plata obscurezca prematuramente debido a los elementos del aire. ENGLISH: Howdy! Here you have a magnificent Puerto Rico fantasy coin. Due to the fact that our land is a Territory of the United States, governed as a Commonwealth, It is the U.S. Dollar the one that circulates within. Due to this fact we have decided to issue fantasy coinage yearly, in our vernacular Spanish, since 2008, most common of which is the "Peseta," our local word for the Quarter Dollar, same size and weight as the Spanish 20 centavos coin of colonial times, our provincial peseta. This year we decided to issue pieces of themes going far and beyond our geography and culture, specially themes capable of linking us to world numismatics. Hence, we came with our own piece celebratory of the Organization of the United Nations, to which we do not belong, even though a large segment of the population wants to, as either a free associated commonwealth, or even its own little country, who knows! Meanwhile, we are just happy here to add our piece to a long tradition of UN commemorative coins of the world, a highly collectible subject worldwide. OBVERSE: It's obverse commemorates Julia de Burgos centennial, 1914 - 2014, a famous poet whose work represents the struggle for liberty, women's rights, and equality. A Puerto Rican flag at her back represents the Loiza River, which in her most famous poem she compares to her native land's endless crying of the political injustices of her day. Julia's work is now available in English, various schools and post secondary institutes in various states carry her name, and even the Federal Government issued a stamp to commemorate her literary contribution to the country. REVERSE: A nicely arranged official symbol of the United Nations, which consists of a map of the world seen from the North Pole, around which there are 5 of the 6 official languages: English, Spanish, French, Arabic, & Chinese. Due to lack of space - and as a way to boycott Puttin from invading the Sovereign, Peace loving, Christian country of Ukraine - we opted to leave "Russian," it's 6th language, out. COMPOSITION: Each piece measures 24.5mm x 2mm, has a weight of 7.6 grams, and has reeded edges, and dark red enamel on reverse. It is finished in pure 0.999 Silver clad, and comes in its protective plastic capsule, to save it from scratches, while preserving its silver tone from the inclemency of the weather. There is a total mintage of a mere 100 pieces. Normal 0 21 false false false ES-TRAD X-NONE X-NONE LAS NACIONES UNIDAS: Es la mayor organización internacional existente. Se define como una asociación de gobierno global que facilita la cooperación en asuntos como el Derecho internacional, la paz y seguridad internacional, el desarrollo económico y social, los asuntos humanitarios y los derechos humanos. La ONU fue fundada el 24 de octubre de 1945 en San Francisco (California), por 51 países, al finalizar la Segunda Guerra Mundial, con la firma de la Carta de las Naciones Unidas. Desde su sede en Nueva York, los Estados miembros de las Naciones Unidas y otros organismos vinculados deliberan y deciden acerca de temas significativos y administrativos en reuniones periódicas celebradas durante el año. La ONU está estructurada en diversos órganos, de los cuales los principales son: Asamblea General, Consejo de Seguridad, Consejo Económico y Social, Secretaría General, Consejo de Administración Fiduciaria y la Corte Internacional de Justicia. La figura pública principal de la ONU es el Secretario General. El actual es Ban Ki-moon de Corea del Sur, que asumió el puesto el 1 de enero de 2007, reemplazando a Kofi Annan. A fecha de 2013, la ONU posee 193 estados miembros, todos los países soberanos reconocidos internacionalmente, más tres miembros en calidad de observadores; la Ciudad del Vaticano, la Orden Soberana y Militar de Malta y el Estado de Palestina. Otros estados independientes de facto como la República de China-Taiwán o Kosovo no son miembros pues son considerados territorios en disputa. La sede europea (y segunda sede mundial) de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas se sitúa en Ginebra, Suiza. Los idiomas oficiales de la ONU son seis: árabe, chino mandarín, español, francés, inglés y ruso. THE UNITED NATIONS (UN) is an intergovernmental organization established 24 October 1945, to promote international co-operation. A replacement for the ineffective League of Nations, the organization was created following the Second World War to prevent another such conflict. At its founding, the UN had 51 member states; there are now 193. The headquarters of the United Nations is situated in Manhattan, New York City, and enjoys extraterritoriality. Further main offices are situated in Geneva, Nairobi and Vienna. The organization is financed by assessed and voluntary contributions from its member states. Its objectives include maintaining international peace and security, promoting human rights, fostering social and economic development, protecting the environment, and providing humanitarian aid in cases of famine, natural disaster, and armed conflict. During the Second World War, US President Franklin D. Roosevelt initiated talks on a successor agency to the League of Nations, and the United Nations Charter was drafted at a conference in April–June 1945; this charter took effect 24 October 1945, and the UN began operation. The UN's mission to preserve world peace was complicated in its early decades by the Cold War between the US and Soviet Union and their respective allies. The organization participated in major actions in Korea and the Congo, as well as approving the creation of the state of Israel in 1947. The organization's membership grew significantly following widespread decolonization in the 1960s, and by the 1970s its budget for economic and social development programs far outstripped its spending on peacekeeping. After the end of the Cold War, the UN took on major military and peacekeeping missions across the world with varying degrees of success. The UN has six principal organs: the General Assembly (the main deliberative assembly); the Security Council (for deciding certain resolutions for peace and security); the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) (for promoting international economic and social co-operation and development); the Secretariat (for providing studies, information, and facilities needed by the UN); the International Court of Justice (the primary judicial organ); and the United Nations Trusteeship Council (inactive since 1994). UN System agencies include the World Bank Group, the World Health Organization, the World Food Program, UNESCO, and UNICEF. The UN's most prominent officer is the Secretary-General, an office held by South Korean Ban Ki-moon since 2007. Non-governmental organizations may be granted consultative status with ECOSOC and other agencies to participate in the UN's work. The organization won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2001, and a number of its officers and agencies have also been awarded the prize. Other evaluations of the UN's effectiveness have been mixed. Some commentators believe the organization to be an important force for peace and human development, while others have called the organization ineffective, corrupt, or biased. JULIA DE BURGOS BIOGRAPHY:Julia de Burgos (February 17, 1914 – July 6, 1953) was a poet from Puerto Rico. As an advocate of Puerto Rican independence, she served as Secretary General of the Daughters of Freedom, the women's branch of the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party. She was also a civil rights activist for women and African/Afro-Caribbean writers. EARLY YEARS Julia de Burgos (birth name: Julia Constanza de Burgos García) was born to Francisco Burgos Hans (a farmer) and Paula García de Burgos. Although her father worked for the National Guard and farmed near the town of Carolina, Puerto Rico, where she was born, the family later moved to the barrio of Santa Cruz of the same city. She was the oldest of thirteen children, and six of her youngest siblings died of malnutrition. Her first work was Río Grande de Loíza. According to Burgos: "My childhood was all a poem in the river, and a river in the poem of my first dreams." After she graduated from Muñoz Rivera Primary School in 1928, her family moved to Rio Piedras where she was awarded a scholarship to attend University High School. In 1931, she enrolled in University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus to become a teacher. In 1933, Burgos graduated at the age of 19 from the University of Puerto Rico with a degree in teaching. She became a teacher and worked at Feijoo Elementary School in Barrio Cedro Arriba of Naranjito, Puerto Rico. She also worked as writer for a children's program on public radio, but was reportedly fired for her political beliefs. Among her early influences were Luis Lloréns Torres, Clara Lair, Rafael Alberti and Pablo Neruda. NATIONALIST In 1934, she married Ruben Rodrigues Beauchamp and ended her teaching career. In 1936, she was a member of the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party (Partido Nacionalista de Puerto Rico) and elected Secretary General of the Daughters of Freedom, a non-partisan women's organization which was the women's branch of the Nationalist Party. The Puerto Rican Nationalist Party was the independence party headed by Pedro Albizu Campos, a Puerto Rican Nationalist. She divorced her husband in 1937. LITERATURE By the early 1930s, Burgos was already a published writer in journals and newspapers. She published three books which contained a collection of her poems. For her first two books, she traveled around the island promoting herself by giving book readings. Her third book was published posthumously in 1954. Burgos's lyrical poems are a combination of the intimate, the land and the social struggle of the oppressed. Many critics assert that her poetry anticipated the work of feminist writers and poets as well as that of other Hispanic authors. In one of her poems, she writes: “I am life, strength, woman.” Burgos received awards and recognition for her work and was celebrated by poets including Pablo Neruda, who stated that her calling was to be the greatest poet of the Americas. Among Julia de Burgos' works are: El Rio Grande de LoizaPoema para Mi Muerte (My Death Poem),Yo Misma Fui Mi Ruta (I Was My Own Path),Alba de Mi Silencio (Dawn of My Silence),Alta Mar y Gaviota LATER YEARS "Río Grande de Loíza!... Great river. Great flood of tears... save those greater that come from the eyes of my soul for my enslaved people" Julia de Burgos, "El Rio Grande de Loiza" Later in life, Burgos became romantically involved with Dr. Juan Isidro Jimenes Grullón, a Dominican physician. According to Grullón, many of her poems during that time were inspired by the love that she felt for him. In 1939, Burgos and Jimenes Grullón traveled first to Cuba where she attended the University of Havana and then later to New York where she worked as a journalist for Pueblos Hispanos, a progressive newspaper. Shortly after their arrival in Cuba, Burgos' relationship with Jimenes Grullón began to show tension. After trying to save her relationship, she instead left and returned once again to New York, however this time alone, where she took menial jobs to support herself. In 1943, she married Armando Marín, a musician from Vieques. In 1947, the marriage also ended in divorce, lapsing Burgos into further depression and alcoholism. In February 1953, she wrote one of her last poems, "Farewell in Welfare Island". It was written during her last hospitalization and is believed to be the only poem she wrote in English. In the poem she foreshadows her death and reveals an ever darker concept of life: "Farewell in Welfare Island" By:Julia de Burgos It has to be from here, right this instance, my cry into the world. My cry that is no more mine, but hers and his forever, the comrades of my silence, the phantoms of my grave On June 28, 1953, Julia de Burgos left the home of a relative in Brooklyn, where she had been residing. She disappeared without leaving a clue as to where she went. It was later discovered that on July 6, 1953, she collapsed on a sidewalk in the Spanish Harlem section of Manhattan, and later died of pneumonia at a hospital in Harlem at the age of 39. Since no one claimed her body and she had no identification on her, the city gave her a pauper's burial on Hart Island, the city's only potter's field. Eventually, some of her friends and relatives were able to trace her, find her grave, and claim her body. A committee was organized in Puerto Rico, presided over by Dr. Margot Arce de Vázquez, to have her remains transferred to the island. Burgos' remains arrived on September 6, 1953 and funeral services for her were held at the Puerto Rican Atheneum. She was given a hero's burial at the Municipal Cemetery of Carolina. A monument was later built at her burial site by the City of Carolina. HONORS On February 19, 1987, the Spanish Department of the University of Puerto Rico posthumously honored Julia de Burgos by granting her a doctorate in Human Arts and Letters. The proclamation was presented to her niece, Maria Consuelo Seaz Burgos. Cities that have honored Julia de Burgos include: Carolina, Puerto Rico Escuela Julia de BurgosNew York City, New York Julia de Burgos Cultural CenterJulia de Burgos Way (corner of East 106th Street and Lexington Avenue) Julia de Burgos Middle School (M.S. 99)Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Julia de Burgos Elementary SchoolJulia de Burgos Magnet Middle SchoolSan Juan, Puerto Rico Casa Protegida Julia de Burgos (domestic violence shelter) Willimantic, Connecticut Julia de Burgos Pocket Park The Puerto Rican sculptor Tomás Batista sculpted a bust of Julia in the Julia de Burgos Park in Carolina. Isabel Cuchí Coll published a book about Burgos titled Dos Poetisas de América: Clara Lair y Julia de Burgos. Puerto Rican poet Giannina Braschi, who was born the year of Burgos' death, pays homage to her poetry and legend in a scene of the Spanglish novel Yo-Yo Boing! At Yale University, the Latino Cultural Center is named in her honor, La Casa Cultural Julia de Burgos A documentary about the life of Julia de Burgos was made in 2002 titled "Julia, Toda en mi..." (Julia, All in me...) directed and produced by Ivonne Belén. Another biopic about her life, "Vida y poesía de Julia de Burgos," was filmed and released in Puerto Rico in 1978. In New York City the Julia de Burgos Cultural Center, on 106th street and Lexington Avenue, is named after her. On September 14, 2010, in a ceremony held in San Juan, the United States Postal Service honored Burgos's life and literary work with the issuance of a first class postage stamp, the 26th release in the postal system's Literary Arts series. The stamp's portrait was created by Toronto-based artist Jody Hewgill. In 2011, de Burgos was inducted into the New York Writers Hall of Fame. There is a plaque, located at the monument to the Jayuya Uprising participants in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico, honoring the women of the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party. de Burgos's name is on the sixth line of the third plate.NOTICE: INTENDED FOR COLLECTORS ONLY, THIS IS A MEDALLIC ISSUE, AN ITEM OF EXONUMIA, NOT A LEGAL TENDER COIN.
