In 1872, the ship was spotted off the Azores in the Atlantic completely intact and undisturbed, aside from its missing crew. Not a single person, alive or dead or undead, could be found, despite everyone’s personal belongings still sitting undisturbed where they had been left. Even little things like valuables and piano music were right where they should have been. It was as if its crew had simply evaporated.
The strange case of the disappearing crew of the merchant ship Mary Celeste is not only the most famous maritime mystery in history, it is the episode which served as midwife to the Bermuda Triangle hysteria.

I’ve seen so many posts of the old peso bills in pinoytumblr in the recent past days. I can handle the old coins.
The development (and devaluation) of the Peso.
When the coin A was used, the peso then had a relatively healthy exchange rate with the dollar then, $1 = Php. 2.00. Owning this in those days means you are rich enough, I recall the story of my professor that Banana Cue then was 5 centavos (Php 0.05), today banana cue is 7 pesos.
Coin B was introduced during martial law, it held a pretty decent value still even the peso was about 5 to 10 pesos a dollar. Ang Bagong Lipunan (The New Society) was the slogan of the Marcos Regime.
Coin C was introduced after the Martial Law, but it had a very diminished value now. Rate was hovering between 20 to 25 pesos a dollar. It comes in a larger series and a smaller series. The one in the photo is in the smaller series.
Coin D. Candy na lang mabibili nito.
