YoungNumismatist Valued Member United States 360 Posts	Posted 10/23/2012 8:31 pm I know this isn't worth much, but I figured it would be sort of cool to have something from a sort of collapsed economy (I know it is not from the time period of the collapse most of us know about). That is just my opinion though, I do not want to start a political debate or anything. Anyway I just wanted to show you a recent add to my foreigns. Hope you like it. Report this Post to the Staff

mvojnovic Pillar of the Community Serbia (Srbija) 576 Posts	Posted 10/26/2012 05:42 am I dont know about USA but these Greek drachmas are like Romanian leu coins from 60s, pretty common here. I have like few 100s of these. The Economy is part of numismatics and talking about it doesn't necessarily lead you to politics. I think Aristotle might agree with me My collection on Numista page: 7500 different coins and counting... https://en.numista.com/echanges/pro...hp?id=129798 Report this Post to the Staff
YoungNumismatist Valued Member United States 360 Posts	Posted 10/26/2012 4:19 pm I know that they are common; I just thought it was cool. Also, I just wanted to state that I am not trying to start a debate because in America right now we are having our presidential election. Report this Post to the Staff
