Collectible currency

Collectible currency refers to banknotes and coins valued beyond their original monetary worth due to their rarity, historical significance, or unique features. Enthusiasts and investors seek out these items as collectibles, often preserving them for their cultural importance or potential appreciation in value over time. Factors influencing collectible currency include limited edition releases, printing errors, age, condition, and historical context. While they can function as legal tender, their primary appeal is as tangible pieces of history and craftsmanship, making them sought after for collection, investment, or historical study.
