Coins?
Here's my pocket change

>>74184220
Cool, I've always liked the design on the current Mexican series. Have you used those $20 or $100 silver coins?

>>74184371
Silver pesos same as gold pesos are just investments and I only have 1 silver coin
But that's it

>>74184508
>>74184371
out of curiosity... do you two feel more comfortable speaking in english as opposed to spanish because of mexican spanish vs chilean spanish differences?

>>74184556

I'm not talking about ounces, but circulating coins, like the state shields series.
A friend of mine went to Cancun and got one of these as change. It seems they're being sold for more than $100 now.

>>74184556
The differences between other's countries Spanish in LA are like American and British English, as in just a few words.
I'm just talking in English so other Anons can understand.

>>74184682
solo pregunto porque he visto lo mismo con unos dos profesores de universidad, uno era de mexico, el otro de bolivia o algun pais sudamericano, se hablaban en ingles, y me parecía un poco raro

>>74184748

>>74184698
Oh no, every time these kind of coins come out collectors or re sellers keep them off normal people

I have this pretty cool Mexican republic coin from 1897

>>74184990
150 of those and you got average pay back then

>>74184748
One of my coworkers is from Mexico and I'm from Spain. I have no problems speaking with him in Spanish though we both usually and literally forget about it and speak in English. It's very easy and natural to switch between languages when you are used to it.

>>74185170
thats pretty crazy. I like to hold it in my hand and think about all the things that have happened in mexico since then. I wonder what things may have been bought with this coin, like did a drunk guy ever buy aguardiente with it and die or something, you know

>>74184892
>collectors or re sellers keep them off normal people
Yeah, it's a shame. But I've seen people getting lucky and finding one in change, just like the old silver 10 Nuevos pesos coin, but much rarer.
Forgot to ask you, what was the silver coin you have?

>>74184990
That is a pretty nice coin. Not too rare, but wanted enough to be worth more than your average coin.
Where did you get it?

Most are from Latin America and Canada

>>74185295
just ebay, came in a big pile that cost 9 dollars.

>>74185304
Most of those are current coins, except for the Silver mexican 10 centavos and the George V one. Is that Canadian?
Could you take them all out?

Also,

It seems you already saved your buy with that coin. What else was in the big pile?

>>74185497
Do you see mostly Slovak and German euros over there?

>>74185410
In like an hour if the thread is still up
Notes didn't fit extended in my tarahumara bag

>>74185540
It's pretty common to see euros from other countries. Here in Slovakia you can find truckloads of German and Austrian euros, as there's a lot of tourists and workers which move a lot between these countries.

In Spain it's not rare to find French, German or Italian euros due to tourism too.

The lines represent the Baltic Sea. It says something along the lines of "A wonderful story about a country on the other side of the ocean". It's talking about Finland.

>>74186138
If speaking about euros, anything from Northern/Eastern countries is rare to see in Spain, I think I once saw a Finnish (?) euro.

If speaking about other coins, dunno, I have a couple of yens but japanese tourists are a plague in Europe now so they are not that rare.

>>74186271
They're always the best gifts. What year it was?

>>74186416
I've always found this coin fascinating. Aside from the design, probably one of the few related about giving independence to another country.

>>74186484
I have a Lithuanian friend and even he has trouble finding Estonian and Latvian euros. It's always Lithuanian and German ones.
If you ever go back to Spain, look out for Andorran Euros, probably the most rare of all.

>>74186717
The problem with small(ish) countries is that they either arrived late to the euro-fest or they decided to mint a small amount of coins just out of national pride, so closer countries such as Germany in those cases have a bigger presence.

I have looked it up about Andorra and it's the same thing, just a small number of them minted in Madrid and Paris. I'll snatch one of them if I visit it.

>>74187224
It's worse with commemorative coins, as some mints has already "reserved" most of the mintage to resellers, so collectors have to pay a fortune instead of finding it as a 2 euro coin. Recently, in Andorra and Monaco coins.

Pretty diverse for a small collection. The Argentinian and Uruguayan ones are circulating coins, but they are not worth a lot.

>>74189759
I've always wanted 1 oz of pure silver, those things are huge. What year is that one?
Mexico always had circulating silver coins, so it seems it's pretty easy to find one there. I've never boutgh those kind of silver cents here because they always overprice it.
And the relatives' gifts are always the best for a collection.

>>74190144
What year is that one?
1994, the year of my birth :^)
>And the relatives' gifts are always the best for a collection.

>>74186717
We didn't give them independence. Russia annexed them.

>>74192497
first one is from Saxony

I had these coins on my shoecabinet. It's not very rare to find coins from Lithuania and these German coins, but from Luxemburg it is. Also Malta, Vatican etc. is rare as fuck.

>Also Malta, Vatican etc. is rare as fuck.
I've been told that. I only have pre-euro Malta coins and 2 Vatican liras.

I saved them on my shoecabinet just for fun. Some people seriously collect them. There is some yearly unique prints which might be worth something later.

They might. If they're in better condition, it will.

I thought that 5 Euro coin was just collectors item. They're planning to make them for regular circulation?

>>74193016
For being the only neat coin you have, it's worth a ton. Was it a gift?

>>74193195

How hard would it be to obtain a full collection of US states coins?

>>74194361
It's not that hard to get them, except for the last 6 ones about US territories (Guam, Samoa, Puerto Rico, etc) because of the low mintage. I've seen entire state quarter collections being sold for CL$35000 on facebook.

>>74194204
A coin can tell a lot of stories about why was used and by who. It's also a great way to see a photo of the lifestyle and culture of a certain country in a certain year. That's why I find them fascinating

>>74194827
Nice, will keep an eye on them if that's the case.

>>74194949
Where did you get all those cents?

>>74194998
Gifts from a relative who used to work at a hotel.

>>74195022
Oh yeah, that's a great way to get some foreign coins. Of course, if you're not into it, that tip will be worthless.
I'm surprised some American tourist carried some 1 dollar coins.

I really like how the danish krone has a hole in it. More interesting.

I remember playing with them as a kid. Som doesn't cost shit compared to dollar so we rarely use coins.

>>74198848
Great stuff. I had to go to the Central Bank in Buenos Aires for a uncirculated 50 pesos with Malvinas. And the 2 pesos coins for Malvinas too.

That seems about right. I'll take in count if I find British Indian silver one of these days.
And $150 it's the price for pre-british silver? Kingdoms and shit?

Nunca se pierde, me mudé tres veces desde que la tengo, y apesar de que no guardo bien las cosas que colecciono, esa moneda siempre termina apareciedo en algún lado, la llevé al colegio mil veces, a la casa de mis abuelos, un par de años estuvo desaparecida pero se las arregla para aparecer por los recovecos de la casa cuándo menos la buscas.

Capaz por eso es mi mejor moneda, porque siempre que la veo me acuerdo de mi vidita.

What can you buy with those coins?

>>74199979
If you ask why they choose a leaf for their flag, this is the reason. They were using them since day one. And that upper Canada seems to be kind of rare, really nice.

It was great to see those coins, pretty interesting how common it seem they are. See you later, take care.

>>74200048
These coins on photo are soms, not tyiyns (1, 3 and 5). So you can pay with them everywhere: public transport, grocery etc. They replaced banknotes in 2009 i believe

>>74200246
And what's the lowest coin you can see circulating? 1 som?

>>74200309
Yep, and also 10 and 50 tyiyn but they are rare. Usually you can get them in supermarket or on the currency exchange. 1 tyiyn is also exist but not issued for circulation.

>>74200390
I just find this kind of info fascinating. We still have the 1 peso coin circulating over here, but it's worth like 10 tyiyn, so you only find them in supermarket change.

Is it common to see another country money in circulation over there?

How does one even begin coin collecting
Are there sites to buy from? Bit too autistic to go into physical stores, not that I'd know where to go there either

The best way is asking friends or relatives. If you hear someone is going on a vacation, ask them for some coins.
ebay it's pretty much the site to go, unless there are local selling sites over there.
But of all my coins, just a few of them I've bought it from internet. Most of my collection is from flea markets, always looking for the cheap stuff. And some times some exchanges from foreign collectors.

Try to find a cheap coin bulk on ebay so you can start digging.

Fuck, I need a coin collection now.

>>74200543
> Is it common to see another country money in circulation over there?
Usually US dollar. Cars, electronics, real estate - that kind of expensive stuff - can be acquired for dollars. IIRC uzbek soʻm is in circulation on the south. What about Chile?

>>74200647
I just posted there.

>>74200745
Ask some relatives desu. I even got some coins from an Anon here on /int/.

>>74200853
Here it's only Chilean peso. From candies to houses, of course nobody pays the later in cash. Maybe some tourist spots can receive Argentine peso or Brazilian real, but you'll end up losing.
You can exchange dollar, euro, pound and other South American currencies in exchange bureaus or some banks.
Don't you see some Russian roubles over there? How much is a can of coke?

>>74201111
I really wish they would have designed the 1kr, 5kr and 2kr better.. I mean they are basically the same size, same weight, etc. The 1kr is a little smaller but I mean it still not enough.
Our older coins were a lot better.

>>74201111
>>74201226
So the 2 kr coin has been useful?
Did they already took all the older coins from circulation?

>>74201317
>So the 2 kr coin has been useful?
>Did they already took all the older coins from circulation?
There is still som old coins in circulation but the state is quickly swapping out all the old ones. I would say 85% is new coins now.
And yes, the 2 kr coin saves a lot of space.
But like I said it's easy to confuse with the 1 kr coin.

>>74201032
> Don't you see some Russian roubles over there
No. Uzbek som is in circulation only because of big number of ethnic uzbeks on the south and open borders between countries, otherwise it wouldn't be in circulation as well.
> How much is a can of coke?
~25 som for .25 L can.

That's a shame. Hopefully after a few years the coins will lost their shine and start being more identifiable.

>>74201450
That's pretty cheap. Here's is $500 (0.75 USD) for a 350cc can.
I really appreciate your input in all this. I hope my questions weren't such a bother, but it's intriguing to know all that stuff from a far away country like yours.

Do you collect only euros? What's the rarest coin you have?

>>74202210
I collect coins from all over the world. I also have an apartment up on Airbnb so when someone from far away comes to stay with me I ask them for change. So far everyone agreed, yesterday a Russian guy gave me 10 rubles (and a small bottle of vodka too as a present).
My rarest coin would be
Euro: 2€ from the Principality of Monaco
Foreign: 5 Kenyan shilling
Old: 1953 5 Italian liras

>>74202365
Pretty nice way to get coins. Nothing from the Vatican or San Marino?

>>74202396
Only euros from there. From the Vatican I have 50 cent with Benedict XVI and Francis I, from San Marino I have 1€ and 50 cent. I think I'm missing only Andorra and Estonia for at least one coin of every Euro country

Impressive collection. I've always loved how the french released tons of commemorative coins with great designs, even until this day. How did you get most of those? I could guess those 10F and 20F were found in change.
And that 1987 ECU, is it pure gold? I can't seem to find it that coin design and year on gold, only silver.

>>74225822
And the 2000 pesos in paper. I'm also missing that one, I can't see myself spending $7000 for one of those.
Thankfully I saved 2 $500 bills when the coin was released. It was a lot of money for the little me. But most of 2000 $500 notes are being sold for like 2000-3000 pesos now.
But I've heard of people who tried to pay with those old bills now, and having problems. Of course, most of collectors would gladly take those old notes.

Now that you put that info, it looks more impressive. I've never heard of that Cooper riot before, so I had to take look.

Just some of the most interesting coins from my dads tin can filled with various coins.

The two top ones are Swedish coins. The brown one is the oldest coin from the entire can (1892).

The other coin is from 1900 and is 80% silver.

>>74223756
Why is that 20 cent silver?

>>74228804

If I ever find a coin set for $5 I'll buy it a heartbeat. But I can't seem to find that set in the Central Bank of Belarus, but I don't think they'll ship to Chile.
And for being so old and big, 10$ is pretty cheap for an old silver coin.

How many coins has that can of your dad?

>>74229815
Yes, the silver coin is 31mm in diameter and when googling it says it should have something like 12 grams of silver content.

Haven't counted but its probably something like 40-50 coins at least. However many of them are just obsolete Öre-coins dated from the 60's and 70's

The last öre coin to be in circulation became invalid in 2010 (50 öre). I think I have a small bagwith like 20 of those somewhere.

Theres various öre coins from basically the entire 1900s in that can.

>Anything foreign

Various coins from Europe from when my dad travelled around Europe in his youth. I can't be bothered to look through it all but for example france, germany, czech republic, italy, hungary.

I'm not really an expert on coins or a coin collector but I found his can a year or two ago and thought it was kindof neat that he had managed to save some 100+ year old coins.

I saw how a person bought 3 kilograms of such coins
And I saw this not once

Just what I say to most anons, don't sell his coins.

Pretty sure he got them from his father when he passed away.

My dad isn't really a coin collector either except he also found it neat to own such old coins.

I have an amateur coin collection of maybe ~1000 coins, not including the ~10,000 US coins I have. I only collect coins from countries that I visit or come across, never by purchase*.

I also collect banknotes, bills, and post cards from around the world.

Does anyone else use numista?

>>74233454
I've seen a lot of anons with Iraqi banknotes from relatives on the war, but coins are kind of rare and not used now in Iraq.
No coins from Iran, those can be rare.

>>74233567
How do you get 10000 US coins without buying some?
I also have Numista. I spent like 5 hours adding like 200 coins yesterday, one of the reasons I made this thread.

Do you have a better picture of those coins? I see some interesting coins there.

>>74233362
>Wasn't the olympic flag coin rare?
It's the rarest of them all, but still you can easily find them in facebook groups dedicated to coin's collection
>I'm missing that 250 libres, I only have 100 and 500 from Lebanon. How did you get those?

The 10k US coins are from just throwing coins into a jar over years. It actually came from my grandpa who would save up every coin he came into during the 50s and 60s so his kids would have a college fund but then he got rich in the 70s and forgot about it in the attic. He passed them onto me because he knows I enjoy coins.

I do have a better picture but 4chan's image quality limit wouldn't let me post it so here

It was just a random picture from 2015 I sent to a friend who also likes coins. Not sure why I still have it saved but whatever.

Any coin to the jar? How many silver ones are in those 10k?
I was asking for the image because of that weird shaped 1 dollar coin in the middle, and I can't guess where is it from.

Was that coin set also a gift? Looks pretty nice.

>>74234426
It's the best coin site out there. They always have the catalogue with the lasted actualizations and it's a great way to find another collectors to make exchanges, and to have organized your collection, of course.
They are trying to put prices on it, but it's always a controversial issue.

All the coins from the jars were pennies, nickels, dimes, and a few quarters. The years ranged from 1910s to the 1960s.

>How many silver ones are in those 10k?
Quite a few actually. My dad and I went through them during Christmas and that's when I took them home.

I'm also not worried about the silver coins because I found something even more special. Check pic related. Now google a 1943 copper penny value and the reasoning behind it.

>I was asking for the image because of that weird shaped 1 dollar coin in the middle, and I can't guess where is it from.
It's 1977 $1 piece from the Soloman Islands. My mom picked it up when she visited in the 80s and I got it from her.

>Was that coin set also a gift? Looks pretty nice.
I really don't know. I've always just had it. I also have a lot of coin books and catalogues from each year. I'm not sure where they came from.

It's true, zinc and aluminium can easily corrode.

>>74234856
A cooper penny during the war, I don't need to look it up to know it's pretty valuable, maybe the most valuable of the thread. It seems you went looking for years in each of the 10k coins, but with that one it's all worth it. Do you have a pic of all the coin? Just for the image collection
Solomon Islands, that is a rare country. And those weird 10 cents are from there too.

Have you swapped with Numista collectors before? What did you send them?

>>74234974
There's one on ebay for $250k. Also, one sold at auction for nearly $2,000,000 and another one for over $1,000,000. I still need to get mine authenticated but there's no way in hell I'm mailing it off somewhere.

We spent all day of the 22nd and the 23rd before Christmas sorting out coins by the year. I would have skipped over the 1943 but we were like halfway through and I was wondering why that was the first 1943 I came across while we had hundreds of every other year. The only full picture I have of the face side of the coin is with this stupid snapchat caption over it because I screenshotted it when I sent it to my coin friend after finding it. The coin is still at my grandpa's house. I'll post the reverse side in a second

>Have you swapped with Numista collectors before? What did you send them?
Never swapped before. I only found out about numista because the friend who also collects coins had me create one so he could see what I have. Now I just use it to keep track of what I have.

>>74235436
I have lots of coins and banknotes, oldest coins are from 300-400 bc and oldest banknote are from the french revolution.

I always get my coins from auctions and coin markets in bulk lots so i don't know exactly, depends on the grade and year mostly because some coins that are only 5 euros in lower grade can cost up to thousands in mint state.

Finnish coins used to have fairly low mintages so they tend to be a rarity outside finland.

Those old notes are amazing. How much did you paid for those? And don't you have a folder for storing those notes?
I remember that 1000 markka note being the highest denomination because of that meme. Did you saved them before the Euro introduction?

>>74235529
It's a great site to make exchanges, I've been always satisfied with the swaps there.
Do you know how much cost to authenticate that penny?

>>74236241
That Ukrainian one, is it a banknote?

>>74236920
I was too young to have used money back when we had markka as our currency, i bought it from n auction for around 100 euros.

I think i paid around 35£ for the swedish note 50 euros for the portuguese on and 15 euros for the hungarian.

I have folders, cases, holders and all sorts of other things to store them in, I prefer storing them in a way so that i can access them at any time without having to break any sealed covers.

>>74236920
Close, it was the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes when the coin was printed.

>>74237038
>100 euros.
Isn't that less than the actual worth of the banknote? Is not valid now, right?
It seems you've been long in this, how did you started to collect? Any favorite coin or banknote?

You're right, and I even have the same coin.
