Description
Over 40 years ago, Saudi engineer Sami Kurdi discovered his passion for collecting postage stamps, which marked his initial foray into acquiring rare historical artifacts. He then turned to coin collecting, and a year ago, he established a museum housing 100,000 pieces. His immersion in historical artifacts led him to create a comprehensive museum, documenting the history of the Makkah region and other areas. The museum has become a destination for visitors and those interested in history and heritage. Kurdi spoke to Asharq Al-Awsat about his journey with the world of heritage, which developed during his university studies and through his numerous visits to local auctions and museums. These experiences enriched his knowledge of heritage and provided him with valuable experience. His interest in collecting heritage artifacts then expanded. He added that the idea for the museum came to him immediately after his retirement in early 2014. It took four years to prepare the museum and complete its facilities. Kurdi points to the royal decrees, some 150 to 200 years old, that he inherited from his ancestors and considers them rare. He also takes pride in owning the first paper passport issued during the reign of King Abdulaziz, the founder of the Kingdom, some 90 years ago. Coins also feature prominently in Kurdi's collection of rare artifacts. He explains that some date back to the pre-Islamic era, and there are also Islamic coins and old Saudi coins, from the time of King Abdulaziz to the present day, in all their forms: gold, silver, copper, nickel, and paper currency.
