If you think coin collecting is only for the ones who are filthy rich then you are wrong!

Well…all coins are not expensive as you think. Few of the coins are sold as cheap as peanuts. So here is one of the examples where the Copper Unit of Vima Kadphises (100-127/8 CE) is sold for only 900 bucks! Yes, you heard it right.

The obverse of the coin depicts the standing king facing left with sacrificing over altar and legend around it. The reverse of it has Lord Shiva standing facing front, holding trident and diadem in front of Nandi with Kharosthi legend ‘Rajadhiraja Sarvaloga Isvarasa Mahesvarasa’. It weighs around 16.27 grams.

So when are you making a tiny budget to start your own collection? It’s just our minds that need to be kept alert when buying and selling any coins.
