Money, coins, currency... theme

2008.02.06
Euros, as you can see every country has its designs...

When you collect, you have to care about the image but also the year... and over all, the quality. For my part it's not the value that counts, but having coins from all over the world...

Did you noticed that these quarter had various designs also. I think every State got its own. Here we have Minnesota, Texas, North Dakota, Iowa, Colorado and Vermont... I think I have o return... I'm far from having all of them....

From Suriname

Another interesting thing with collection is having the specials... Here 5 pounds...

Another special 2 pounds... my sister in Birmingham brought these to me...

But these are the coins I prefer, I had bought many and offered them :)... only two left ! with a big heart in the middle... sorry I'll keep these 2 !

Corie shells... They used to be money long long time ago in Africa....

I was lucky I met today a woman having her hair plated like I used to, with those corie shells at the end....

I know today is friday and I'm late for this wednesday post... but I needed one shot :)))) of an ancien currency...

With this post I cover 3 themes :)))
Money, Romance (the hearts...) and collection....

DancingDolphin Wow, very clever to cover 3 themes in one! You're right about the USA quarters, there are 50 of them, one for each state. Nice shots, nice collection!

Nayah Bravo! :))) Une pierre trois coups:))) J'adore la 7, la 8 et la 9! Et la 9, devient une fav! Sur ce coup, je suis dévancée (les cauris!!!!), je voulais aussi poster cela!!!! Mais, je le ferai... Pour un usage différent mais tout aussi joli de mon point de vue! :)))
