Numismatics
Started off as a hobby when I first saw a coin of "1 Anna" minted by East India Company in the year of 1936, with King George VI of England imprinted on it. It intrigued me as a kid to know how coins were made and brought to public use. Now I boast a collection that consists of coins made of various metals like nickel, silver, stainless steel and copper, also coins from Mughal era, British era and a few Indian empires. Modern-day coins from various nations including special edition ones also decorate my collection.
