Coin Collection

What kinda hobby would coin collection be? You go around the world spend millions of money and what u bring back home? A coin from the other countries. Or u better know someone who travels around the world and wait for him to return so that can ask him to give a little coin but by the time he’ll return you would have forgotten to get that little piece of money from him…LOL. Sounds really weird n dumb. Just think of it COIN COLLECTION haha…really weird collecting pieces of metal which u just wanna keep so that u can show it to your grandchildren. Hilarious. And coin ‘collection’ would mean you better collect them and put all the variety of currencies in a box or somewhere. Now tell me why would somebody like to occupy a box with hardly one coin being dropped in it in say two years.

Coin collection is known as the hobby of ‘KINGS’. Since we don’t have any kings nowadays or anyone equal to KING’s status so why is this hobby still counted as a hobby. Rather coin collection could be a means of investment like you buy the coins and sell them when there value goes up but that too how much could a coin earn you. you would rather buy currency in larger denomination which would come in paper money.

I have some US coins and had a few australian, singaporian and hong kongian coins but that won’t and shouldn’t and wouldn’t be counted as coin collection. Like this fellow King Farouk of Egypt did collect coins but he had the habit of collecting everything – and then we blame the old people for hoarding hell lotta stuff in the attic.

Hope i made sense of everything. Merry X-Mas!
