Currency collector dreams of touring the world

A man in Liaoning province has collected the currencies of 150 countries in the world and he dreams of visiting those countries someday, reported dfic.cn on Tuesday.

Yue Zhiqiang developed an interest in travel as a boy. After touring some countries, the man got obsessed with the colorful and delicate banknotes of different countries. And he began collecting currencies through buying them online or exchanging with other collectors. Among the banknotes are some which are not yet in circulation, such as a banknote from Iraq, which makes the currency more valuable.

Yue said he wished to visit all the countries whose currencies he has collected.
