Coin Room

Location: Lobby Entrance

Featuring historic and rare coins from around the world, Hastings Museum’s Coin Room began as the result of a donation from the extensive personal collection and has grown to include several hundred pieces today.

Ever wonder what money looked like in the 1700s? You can find out here!

Did you know that in some countries shells and other items were used in place of paper money or coins? Discover these non-traditional forms of currency in this exhibit.

Our “high dollar” Coin Room is within the Museum lobby…and requires no admission to view.
