Description
Summary:Numismatics is the hobby and art of collecting coins and banknotes from different eras and cultures. The reasons minted in various currencies allow us to know historical facts, empires, monarchs, evolution of art, customs and even allow us to display care related phenomena. This paper attempts to locate and identify world coins with images related to the practice of breastfeeding minted from 1900 to 2013 and its subsequent analysis using iconographic methodology. The currencies behave like an interesting and original source of study, yet to be discovered in its entirety, for the construction of the History of the Care and Nursing.
