Same here. Sure, it would be nice to find that $20,000 penny but I just find it really cool to have a 500 year old coin. That's probably the oldest manmade thing I've ever handled. To think that it dates back to medieval times is fascinating. There's military currency from WWII. There's Nazi money. There's German coins with Count von Hindenburg on one side and a zeppelin on the other that are awesome looking.
Here's one of the dealers who sells the ancient stuff:
