User:Sarangburung

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi all,

I am an Indonesian. Apa khabar? (how are you?)

I am actually an Indonesian Chinese and one of the minority groups in Indonesia. My family comes from the city of Semarang in Central Java province. It's one of the largest cities of Indonesia with over 1 million population. My User ID which is "Sarangburung" literally means in English "Bird's nest". If there's any ethnic Chinese here, we all know that bird's nest soup is an expensive food delicacy and therefore, I like it very much!!!

My hobby is Numismatics. I collect all sorts of banknotes and coins. My banknote collection is both modern and old periods. The largest modern banknote denomination I have so far is a Singaporean 10,000 Dollar bill. It's huge and massive!!! And expensive...and I keep it in safety deposit box. And the oldest banknote I have so far in possession is a Ming Dynasty 1 Kuan (1000 cash) banknote dated from Hongwu era (i.e. 1368-1398 A.D.). I love it very much. I don't have scans but in future I will show all my banknote collection. So far, I have at least one banknote from all of the countries on this planet. My coin collection is more oriented towards ancient coin collection. Coins I collect include coins from:

...and still collecting some more!!!
