Collector like us should try our best to explain to non-collector about their collection. Many of them think, old money is gold. To normal people, Malaysia only have 4th series of banknotes but to collectors, we already have over dozen series of banknote. Malaysia 2nd series coins are called Cultural Artifact Series by BNM but we called the coins as a bunga raya series. The new coins most probably will be called Euro series or lightweight series by collector even though BNM has released it as a Distinctively Malaysia series. Collector name the collections differently from what the BNM has announce.
