since boyhood i have kept any curious coin came across. sometimes buying or tricking a clueless owner.
The oldest coins in British (queen victoria rupee) and German East Africa (the hellar) are part of the collection.
apart from coins, dorobo has two world war 2 medals gifted by a kings african rifles veteran (rip). Notes are
not easy to preserve but i have a Kenyatta’s and Moi’s notes that in their heyday were as strong as the dollar.
mostly in the 80s and early 90s did some traveling, Africa, Far East and Europe on Dorobo rights business. Never threw away
the loose change. Was worth it as some of the countries either ceased existence or phased out those currencies.

There is need to find ways of restoring the older coins and getting ways of preserving the paper money. They have to last beyond this century.
“osheni mesho” with a sample of the dorobo coin collection . While looking at the money sometimes I wonder where they have been and who handled them.

Exactly. Nashangaa @Tom Bayeye anacriticize skinny jeans and sneakers. I wnder whether he knows that there are sneaker collectors with a net worth of millions of dollars just from collecting sneakers.
Woah there sport,i critisize mature male folks who wear skinny jeans na balenciagas. I have never critisized sneakers,I myself niko na j’s tuwili hivi ju nazipenda but si hivyo sana. Miaka hainiruhusu.
