I'm curious about why some individuals are interested in gathering currency, specifically those that haven't been in general use, like uncirculated coins and bills. What drives this hobby or practice?

According to International Precious Metals (IPM), for a coin or bill to be considered uncirculated, it must have never been involved in commercial circulation.

This means that the coin or bill must not have been used in everyday transactions where it changes hands multiple times among the general public.

Uncirculated coins and bills are typically in pristine condition, retaining their original mint luster and showing no signs of wear or tear.
