What do i like to do when i dun know what to do.............
I was tired after a day of work and when i get home today, there is nothing to "entertain" me, the show on TV is lousy, nothing much on the net.. it is really those days that i really dun know what to do... so what do i do when i dun know know what to do... hmmmm ......
Look at my money collections... Hahaha.. you must be thinking, wow so "eng" ah... or wow so much money ah!!!.. not exactly...
I used to collect money though its not alot... (from other countries or special kind of money), now still do collect special ones, but most of the time i spend them instead of collecting them... LOL
Below are Singapore "old" coins, those that are not usually used but still can be found in the market...
The old coins that i have.. $1, $0.50, $0.20, $0.10 and $0.05....
The Old Singapore $1 coin ... i dun think there is any one that is using this now...
Too bad, 1967 is the oldest in the market Singapore coin that i have... Though you cant really find it anymore.. Some special coins that i have... that is something besides circle in shape...
These are real coins that are used in Singapore donkey years ago.....Question: Is $0.01 the smallest denomination used in Singapore? The answer is NO...
I think a 1/4 Cents is the smallest.... But right here, i own One 1/2 cents coin...
i dun think the govt will make any 1/4 cents anymore, knowing that alot of singaporean dun even to bother to pick up a 1cents coin on the floor.. anywhere i heard from somewhere that it takes 16 cents to make one 1 cents coin....
On the coin states.. " Commissioners of Currency Malaya #1940# "..... My mum has the quarter cent coin, but she refuses to give it to me....Sigh!Besides Coins, i also have alittle notes collections>>>>
Theses are the older notes that we used to see, but not so much anymore.. now everything has become plastics....Like i say, besides Singapore coins, i also collected coins from other countries...
these coins are mainly given to me by my dad when he travels in the past.... these coins holds memories of my dad when he is still around.....
Some special ones:
5 yen from Japan... dun know if they are still using these??? this one look like those ancient "jiao".. hole in the middle to be stringed up...
This super light and plastic like coin is from Zhong Hua Ren Ming Gung He Guo... Republic of China... is Yi Jiao, made in 1997!
All in all, i have coins from Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei, Australia, Canada, USA, Japan, China, Netherlands, Germany, and even Spain ( the country that i longed to go)... Some i dun even know where they are from....Like these 2, i cant figure out the writtings on the coin....
Had some notes too....
The notes are fewer......
Notes from Italy, China, Brunei, Canada, Hong Kong, Korea, USA... This Note looks like those that people burned.. hahaha... and its from.......
Thats all for today... I am going to count my $$$ Liao!!!!!
