Collecting global currency

[#1 06.27.2026]


Recently I have started collecting decommissioned foreign currency and I've been having a lot of fun! I've yet to get into contact with other collectors, so for now I've been buying notes from my local coin store.

Current collection:

Yugoslavia: 1,000 Dinar (1981), 1 Dinar (1944)
Soviet Union: 1 Ruble (1961), 3 Rubles (1961)
Belarus: 25 Ruble (1992), 50 Rubles (1992)
Ukraine: 1 Karbovanets (1991)
Türkiye: 1,000,000 Liras (?)
Iraq: 5 Dinars (90s?)
Hungary: 1,000,000 Pengő (1945)
Greece: 1,000 Drachma (1987)
Less interesting coin collection:
I have an assortment of coins from Vietnam, Canada, Soviet Union, Hong Kong, China, Germany, UK, Australia, and the Philippines. But I have a really cool coin dated 1895 from Great Britain.
