I was told that antique foreign currency was about worthless. Seems the US is the only country that honours its money no matter the age. For some reason that makes old pfennigs, lire or farthings worthless to collectors. To me, an old coin is still an old coin and therefore of interest but I’m not into collecting coins anyway.
