I recently dug up an old piggy bank we’d totally forgotten about. When I poured it out, I was pleasantly surprised to find it contained coins from the countries we’ve visited.

The kids were thrilled and immediately started sorting them out. Some of the coins in there are no longer in circulation. I wonder if they can be considered rare coins.

I’m not sure what certified coins are or if rare coins can be certified and sold for a higher value. But those are the few coins we get to boast about, not enough to get us anywhere, I’m sure the rare coin consultants will tell us .
