[QUOTE="ikandiggit, post: 754935, member: 16269"]After a year of showing my finds and telling my staff that I collect coins and bills, they finally started to bring me items for my collection. It was frustrating to hear that someone had just cashed in $50 of pennies that their parents had given them which they had been saving for years after I had just told them that I would buy anything that they had. Well, in the last few days things started to change. My boss's mother brought me three obselete Greek bills and earlier in the week I received three bills from Pakistan. One of the waitresses is bringing me a large jar of coins that her grandparents had given her that she just wants to cash in. I have no idea what's in it but it'll be fun to go through. A Chinese employee gave me a set of uncirculated (modern) bills and current coins. His father is a banker in China and also a collector. He's going to be sending me a collection of early paper money and some ancient coins in the new year. Another employee goes to the States regularly and brings me back anything he thinks I might find interesting. Mainly, it's been state quarters but now I have him looking at bills. It's a fun way to collect because you have no idea what's going to show up.[/QUOTE]
