Ok… This post is different from other posts that I’ve written so far… One of my hobby besides photography, Taekwon-Do, sportbikes, comics and etc… I also likes to collect old coins and notes. I started to collect old coins and notes since I was in standard 4 (1984)… It started when my late father gave me a few old coins… I don’t really know how he got those coins from…<\/p>\n

\"dl-collections-coins\"<\/p>\n

These are my old coins collections and most of them are Straits Settlements Coins<\/strong>. I know that most of you don’t even knew that those days we have half a cent, three quarter cent, or even quarter cent. From what I was told by my late grandfather, quarter a cent those days can buy food a whole family for a day. huh!!!….<\/p>\n

Lets go and have a look deeper….<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

This is the most valuable coins.. an 1801 Queen Victoria Straits Settlements three quarter cent coin<\/strong>. The most yang paling I sayang.. and the age is 200++ years<\/strong> old already……There is something weird with this coin. The info what I’ve read from the history book stated that the Straits Settlements was formed in the year 1826<\/strong>… but the coin stated there 1801…. so I really need a Pakar Sejarah to study on this…. anybody…??? Please raised up your hand….<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

This another peace of 1903 King Edward VII 1 Dollar Straits Settlements<\/strong> coin…. I don’t know what 1 dollar value those days compared to recent day….I don’t know how much the value now….<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

This is 1920 King George V Straits Settlements 1 cent<\/strong> coin… Still in good shape…. this one I need Mr. Brasso to shine it up again….<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

This one is 1932 King George V Half Cent Straits Settlements<\/strong> coin… it also need Mr. Brasso to shine it up…<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

This one is 1932 King George V 1\/4 Cent Straits Settlements<\/strong> coin… I wonder what can we buy those days with 1\/4 cent???<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Yang ni plak… 1943 King George VI 1 Cent Straits Settlements<\/strong> coin also…<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

This is real karatss…. a 1949 King George VI 10 Cents<\/strong> coin… yang ni dah ada nama MALAYA<\/strong>…..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

All of these coins are well kept and I’ve a lot more…. most of them are my collections since I got them from my father 25 years ago…<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Other than those coins… I like to collect foreign notes… those are my collections.. some of the notes are not produced anymore and will be collectors items in the near future….<\/p>\n

Lastly,… look at the RM100 notes…. hehhehehehehe… that was the RM100 notes yang lama… Masa tu I decided to keep the full set.. but can’t manage to find RM20 notes and RM50 notes…. I wanted to keep RM1000 notes.. tapi takde duit plak masa tu….<\/p>\n

Other than that.. the old school RM1 note…. and a few with different Central Bank Gabenor signature….<\/p>\n
