Some coins of the world that I collect
More than 25 years ago my father travelled through several countries on business and in each country he visited, even for a few moments while he was in transit at an airport, he exchanged some legal tender coins , he visited Brazil on several occasions, Portugal, and even China where he stayed for two months training some workers of an important company, he accumulated coins from these countries and over time he gave them to me, then I also started to make my own trips and continued with what my father had started, to have a small collection of coins.
Once I felt like selling them and looked for information, I found that collectors do not like coins that have already circulated. I don't know if it's true, but I got rid of the idea. I still have them, but as I am adopting minimalism since some years ago I only want to have what I use and need, having empty space makes me happy, and I want to sell them, I have coins from some countries even some that I did not mention, so I will take pictures to see if I am lucky to find someone interested and cancel me in HBD, I live in Venezuela a hyperinflationary country it would be good that this stagnant money circulates even for the collection of another person.
In this publication I show the coins of Brazil which is called: REAL. The only coins in circulation are the cents of the real and also the 1 real coin, according to a simple search on the internet, they are still in use.
The other coins are the: Portuguese ESCUDOS which was the legal tender in Portugal between 1911 and 1999 before the Euro came out, these coins are definitely collectors coins.
I also show the Hong Kong DOLLAR coin, this is one of the most beautiful coins, it is light and its sound when it falls to the ground is different from the others because it sounds like an empty can, it is not the heavy sound of the others, in fact they do not weigh anything, on the obverse it has a beautiful orchid flower.
And finally, the Mexican pesos, I can remember that this is the first coin in the world to use the $ symbol even before it was used by the United States, I don't know if the ones I show are still valid, maybe some Mexican can help us with that.
In this post I just wanted to share a little of the history of these coins and how they came to my hands, taking advantage of the theme of the day coins around the world of the monthly notice of March that has available @inleo.voter for all content creators, this is my first participation and I hope to continue doing so in the course of the month, I invite you to join and have the chance to win a Premium account.
