Numismatis

In memory of and dedicated to Keith Willden

Numismatis

Around the Numismatis; a glint of silver and gold!
However; they may be searching for a die so bold!
Admiring nickel, copper, mint, select and the proof!
Wanting shine, very fine, and condition through the roof!

Rarity of mint is valued; but they seek a double die!
Uncirculated best, but they love error; you ask why?
Fun is in the details! finding flawless or the mistake!
This world; both most valued, collector's won't forsake!

What is sought. the unique, perfection if you dare!
However art most valued, seek beauty that is rare!
They love commemoratives, special sets, and grade,
It is art work, history, and the way they were made.

In detailed coinage or tokens, passion you can find!
Use light and magnifying glass; so you won't go blind!

Cute poem.
Teaches if you magnify you might read something written very small, a stamp of  invention. 

To carry those broken wings, that are trying to fly again and live so free.

Perfect expression of the fun of collecting (whatever you seek). I still have some rare silver coins from my birthyear... And a collection of wierd paper money from distant countries, worth zilch but fun having for the sake of having, 😂🤣
