If you have a small nominal money or have not sold as a medium of exchange, what do you do? Redeem it with a new one, save it, or throw it away? Now, ancient money has promising selling points. The longer the year of manufacture, the more expensive the value of the ancient money. In fact, some people choose to collect ancient money other than as a hobby, it turns out also as an investment.
In Indonesia, not a few who choose to become collectors of ancient currencies. In fact, in Bandung there is one association for anyone who has a hobby of collecting ancient and rare currencies, the Indonesian Numismatic Association (ANI) West Java. The community has members of about 100 currency collectors, ranging from coins, paper, tokens, and so forth. The collectors are also called numismatis. One of the numismatis from Bandung is Puji Harsono. Puji who is also active as Vice Chairman of West Java ANI is judging that paper money investment will be more promising, because paper money in Indonesia far more popularity when compared with coins or coins.
The investment of ancient currency has been known since 2002, although had experienced vacuum for 20 years. However, until now often conducted auctions, exchanges, and exhibitions numismatika. In comparison to the value of the ancient currency, a New York magazine research found that in the first year, $ 15,397 could be invested in coins, but five years later it was $ 47,023.
In the United States, coin investment became the number one choice in the United States and has persisted for years. High and low value of the ancient currency is influenced by several factors, namely the lack of currency types, physical conditions and the emergence of new collectors who are hunting series of certain currencies. Because, if the shabby and torn currencies can reduce the sale value of the ancient currency. The most commonly sought-after currency that is not or rarely circulated among the public has a very expensive selling point. According to Puji, Indonesia's ancient currency of 1960 that is not circulated for a single interpreted about Rp40 million. How? Do you still want to dump old-fashioned currency that has not been used as a medium of exchange?
