I remember being told, “Son, you’ve missed it. You’ll have to stay with your burden for the rest of your life. It’s invaluable. System, call in the next person.” Waa, waa. Boy, was I frustrated on my blind spot on travel. Is this for the wind wishes? What value can it provide other than burying it in the ground?

However, I later realized that each civilization carries its own mark, one of which is the currency used, typically in coin form. Many monetary interactions are conveyed through coins due to their durability. Yes, towards the end of an era, they may feel worthless, and what meaning do they hold for me and my community? Who would want them more? Should they serve as reminders for my kids and community in the future, I have evidence of what is discussed in the history books that I cherish.

This brings to mind the story of Grant Nolan, now an old man. When the archaeological discovery of the ancient coins used in Old Jerusalem during the Roman period was made, it was a momentous event in the eyes of the archaeologists. He took quite a few coins for memorabilia, driven by a heartfelt connection to the figures of history, which at the time seemed indifferent, but now are real treasures talked about in archaeology & historian circles and currently available in museums for viewing—though no cameras are allowed due to strict data protection, as it's a source of revenue for those who preserve history. 

Many desire to obtain a piece of history, and Grant has grown in awe of the treasure that adds depth as he engages in studies and literature that reveal the life realities of the society discussed. Yes, everybody can discard the evolving, but do they often reflect on the stories of history they have lived? You can ask yourself, “What do I have to lose?” By sharing this with you, I realize that I am playing a role among history lovers and caretakers.
