many people have kinds of collection habits such as stamps, paintings, toys, or coins. in terms of its value as collector's item, a coin is generally made more or less valuable by its condition, specific historical significance,rarity, quality of the design and general popularity with collectors. if a coin is greatly lacking in any of these, it is unlikely to be worth much. on the other hand, coin collection can be interesting even with the value purpose. it's pleasant to collet coins from different countries and check them when spare time. every coin has its own story about the history, people and scenery of its country. sometime it will remind you the special travel experience. why not tell us your story about the coins?

I have never been out of the country where i am presently living so far but my uncle visits foreign countries often. He got me a good amount of coins from different countries once and ever since i have been hooked to collecting coins. I have now two coin collecting albums wherein I flaunt my priced possession....
