Collecting coins was once considered the hobby of kings, but over time this hobby has spread among common people worldwide. Those who collect or study old coins or bills are known as numismatists. Numismatics is the study of coins and related units, and it is one of the oldest hobbies in the world. The History of Numismatics One of the most famous numismatists in history was Emperor Caesar Augustus, born in 63 BC. He had a keen interest in collecting coins from around the world that were in circulation during his era. He often gifted these coins to other rulers to facilitate trade. Numismatics in Oman In the Sultanate of Oman, there are many individuals interested in collecting old coins. One such individual is Syed Shaandar Ali Shah Bukhari, a long-time resident of Oman. Bukhari started collecting posters from magazines, stickers from Suntop tetra packs, and an old coin gifted by his late father, Syedzada Sakhawat Ali Shah Bukhari, from a very young age. "My father saw an interest in antiques in me and would gift me items from time to time, including an old oil lamp from over 50 years ago when he first landed in Oman," said Shaandar. Personal Collection and Historical Significance Shaandar still treasures this oil lamp as a prized possession, reminding him of their humble beginnings. He also possesses an antique timepiece from the early 1900s, memorabilia from his grandfather's participation in WWII, and the first edition of the Oman Arabic newspaper from 1972. "Looking at these precious items is like a trip down memory lane," Shaandar says. Highlights of Bukhari’s Collection Dirham from the Umayyad Era – 784 years old: Oman had the distinction of possessing the oldest Islamic coin mint in the Arabian Peninsula. These coins were used in coastal regions, especially around Sohar, and were minted in Damascus (modern-day Syria) from 40–129 AH/661–746 CE (Umayyad Caliphate).
