I collect but it is more for 'unique' as opposed to value. By unique I mean unique to me. I never grade anything beyond the level of 'oh that looks nice'.

I have many US coins of various flavors but am getting bored with the US quarters and British 50P. Both appear to be just trying to ruin coins like stamps became ruined.

My favorite was when a friend obtained for me a set of communist Russian coins from the 70 and 80s. I love going to flea markets and odd second hand shops to search for interesting looking coins.
