<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kvasir, post: 73162, member: 4139&quot;]Sure why not? I&#039;m 25 and from what i&#039;ve seen so far many fellow numismatists are older middle age males (just a general observation when i visited coin shops and flea-markets). Like many people I have started saving up interesting coins since i was in elementary school. Other than that, I actually started collecting stamps before I collected coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>Even decade or so later, kids are interested in coins too. I was at the flea market just this Saturday hunting for missing key dates at this coin shop, there was this dad taking his son (about 6 or 7) going through a box of pennies filling up a new album with dates. While I was picking my coins quite a few other kids dropped by, browsed and was getting all goo-goo ga-ga over all the &quot;kool&quot; stuff on display. </p><p><br /></p><p>So yeah this hobby will continue as long as there are enough interesting new designs/variations coming out once in awhile to get people interested. For that I think that&#039;s why the Royal Canadian Mint has been so successful, not only in making superior high quality products but also strengthening the numismatic hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
