<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1949731, member: 19463&quot;]I have collected coins for 60 years and ancient coins for 50.&nbsp; The one thing that has remained consistent is that a coin must actually be a coin that was spent somewhere by someone and not made for the sole purpose of being sold to collectors.&nbsp; That probably should exclude a few rare issues of Roman coins but most of this pretend coinage has been a development of the past 100 years.&nbsp; Easily 90% of people who collect coins seem mostly interested in things made just for them and never available at face value.&nbsp; I see it as two completely different hobbies.&nbsp; Enjoy whichever one it is that interests you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
