Passion for Collecting Ancient Coins of India
Ancient Indian coins have always been on my mind
ever since I started collecting them back in 1984. They not only looked beautiful but also opened the doors to India’s rich history. Each coin in my collection has a story to say and that’s what drives me towards collecting old Indian coins.
ď‚— Most collectors follow their passion in their free time
between their busy schedule or between their routine jobs. Collecting ancient Indian coins keeps me excited and on my toes all the time. There is something more in life apart from family and career to look forward to when you are so engaged in a hobby.
ď‚— Many people have a big misconception that I make a
lot of money by collecting old Indian coins. The matter of the fact is that it’s totally untrue. I never feel like selling coins from my collection because they are so dear to me. Almost like a family member. Why would anyone want to let go of their most prized possession.
ď‚— Yes, you are maybe missing out a chance to make a few
extra bucks by not selling your ancient Indian coins. But then I look back and analyse, why did I start collecting old Indian coins in the first place? The answer to that question has always been, because I love reading about Indian history.
I have always believed that one should stick to one’s
own beliefs and value system. Doesn’t really matter what the world thinks about you; simply keep doing what you love doing the most. That’s the reason why I still collect old Indian coins with the same kind of passion that I had when I added the first coin to my collection!
