Are there any YN's here at cointalk?

Hey cointalk,
Are any of you guys Young Numismatists? If so, tell me about your collection knowing that there are YNs around the world makes me feel good for coin collecting!

Some of us act like kids - does that count?

 

You will find lots of YNs here. Windchild is very knowledgable regarding ancients, and I have "friended" many other knowledgable YNs, such as Piman, morgandollartj, etc...
I gave up my YN status last year, though.

 

Yeah, I was wondering what the cutoff age was to be considered a YN.

 

As far as the ANA is concerned, 22 is the cutoff.
I am a YN of three years being the N, but a total of 18 years lived.

 

I am here as well. There's plenty of us around here...

 

I think we've missed it by a few years.

 

I consider 18 and under to be YN, although I am unsure of the "exact" cutoff age. If ANA cutoff is 22 as stated, I guess I am still a YN at 19.

 

Hey Ricky!

I collect US coins and focus mainly on building sets, from shield nickels to Roosevelt dimes to type sets. I CRH often, and have dabbled a bit in foreign coins and US currency. I also hoard silver

 

There are quite a few YN's on CoinTalk including me, Caz and Piman

I collect Ancients, with collections based around Sassanid Coins and their copies, Quasi-Independent Kingdoms under Parthian rule, Carthage, the First 18 Caesar's [1 coin per, nice coins only], and Britannia (Roman Britain).

I also collect US type and Newfoundland coins (by Date)

Thanks

 

Yeah whatever. Some of us just never grow up and still pursue the hobby with the enthusiasm of youth!

 

you want to get old of GD he is too young to collect coins so he just collects coin pics

 

Don't forget about me!

 

You forgot me. Shame on you...or wait, does that mean that you consider me an adult?

 

Nope

I forgot your username....


Plus, it's just a few examples, not everyone

 

"get old of..." was this a Freudian slip?

Suggestion - if you are a YN (22 years old or less) why not tag YN onto your name like Windchild did?

 

Why not make a comprehensive list?

 

Because tagging "YN" ruins the point of "Auctori Awesome."

 

it was a pun

 

So, you haven't lost that delicate sense of humor we all enjoy.
