Where Money meets History Aruba's reknown money collector, Mario Odor (1919-2001), has collected for over 60 years. Today his wife, son, daughters and granddaughter are still managing his legacy at the Numismatic Museum of Aruba. You might be welcomed by his new generations who will gladly guide you through this spectacle of money history. ‘Collection Timeline’: coins circulated in this region in a time when colonists, traders, merchants and even pirates traveled these Caribbean seas. His son and granddaughter, both Numismatists, took his idea to another level and made researches to present Aruba’s timeline through Numismatics. The Aruba Numismatic Museum was established in 1975 and lodges the private collection of Mr. Odor and is the first museum established on Aruba. The museum contains over 45.000 different pieces covering over 400 countries. It contains approximately over 110 different collections on their own, for example: occupation money 1st and 2nd worldwar, primitive, strange, ancient, proof, counter stamp, over struck, mini, chop-coins, errors, leprosarium, gold, ration, F.A.O. dollars & crowns, commemoratives, center holed, scalloped, square, wooden-coins, tokens, medals, food-coupons and much more.
