The silver ones are pretty simple and don't like how tiny the 10k is for its actual value.
Most coins I bought them in local flea markets and stuff like that. Also a few travels or gifts from friends and relatives.

Also, how do you feel about the new Swedish coins?
>>
>>62229386
The silver one in your picture is no longer legal tender, in fact any coin with "öre" on them are completely out of circulation since 2010.

The new coins aren't in circulation yet, so I haven't had an opportunity to look at them in real life, but from the pictures I'm fairly disappointed. I get why they want to get rid of the nickel coins and that's why there are no silvery ones, but I'm still disappointed about it. I think the 2 crown is pretty weird, not sure what the whirlwind thing is supposed to be. The layout for the 1 and 5 though is, although not remarkable, not too bad.

I agree the 10-coin is pretty small for its actual value (though it's fairly thick). I don't know why they didn't choose to update that one. It's pretty messy looking in opinion.

It's hard to post this kind of stuff on 4chan. There's no place for general hobbies, but /int/ seems like the right place.

The most expensive note I have is probably an old chilean 20000 pesos bill. Its still worth its facial value, 30 us dollars. But foregin one I'll have to check.
The most expensive coin would be a silver 5 dollars canadian coin from the 76' olympics, probably worth 20 usd, but I found it for like 8 dollars.

I like this thread! I made a note collection thread over on /trv/ a few weeks ago, it was archived recently and should still be in the archive if you want to check it out.

Do you have any Norwegian kroner? Do you collect currency from places you travel and/or do you buy them in stores/online?

Since I made the thread I actually managed to complete my collection. Me and the Israeli guy talked a bit via mail, and he's gonna send me a 20 shekel note. Meanwhile me and the family travelled to Denmark, so I took home a note from there, I bought a 5 Transnistrian ruble from eBay, while my sister's British bf is sending me £££! That's basically all I'm interested in so far, notes from places I haven't been doesn't really interest me at all. I'm still pretty impressed by your collection though!

It's not easy to get coins from central america over here. And even when the 1 quetzal note cost a few dollar cents, here it's always sold for 1,5$
Anyway, here are my Guatemalan coins.
>>
>>62236827
Thanks bro, you too! My notes are more of a memorabilia, to remind me of places I've been, instead of a collectable. It's the kind of souvenir you can always take home. For example, I wouldn't even be interested in Estonian kroon or Latvian lats, because those countries switched to Euros by the time I got there. In turn, this makes my Lithuanian litai even more special. But I appreciate the thought!

What made you start collecting money in the first place? Have you ever calculate how much your collection is actually worth?

I have a cup-full of those, plus a bunch of small coins from all around central Europe.

These are the only non-repeated ones I have that seemed more special. The first three are commemorative, the last two are from monarchy times. The note and the 1966 are from the dictatorship times, and the long square ones are my nail-clipper.

I wonder how I could clean these?
>>
>>62237170
I was about to say that, those Litai are much more valuable now.

I started collecting when I was little, a relative of mine went to France and Italy and gave me some Francs and Liras. I was amazed by those little coins so I started from there.
I haven't calculated, but its probably worth more than the money I've spent.
Let's say like 200$ on the coins, and I really don't know how much would the note collection be.

The left one can't be fixed. If you try to clean it you would end up with a smooth coin, so don't try to fight it.

Ever seen a Walking Liberty half dollar? Really pretty coins; heavy as fuck too and they come in around 90% pure silver. I've got a good 20 or so but they're all junked and only good for melt value.

I actually found an Indian head penny with my metal detector but it's so corroded you can barely tell what it is. What's the oldest coin you've got, OP?
