Most people who happen across our site are familiar with what "exonumia" is, but just in case we have someone who isn't, we will provide a brief definition and primer on exonumia collecting.

Definition: Exonumia are things that are numismatic in nature, but are not generally official government coinage. Exonumia include things like elongated coins, encased coins, tokens, medals, wooden nickels, coins used for barter, trade, vending, or other uses commercial and non-commercial. Many times in the absence of government, these types of tokens take on special value and become defacto currency.

An exonumist is a person who collects these types of items. As you can see from this site, there are many avenues and specialties to choose from. It can be a most interesting hobby and one that educates as well.
