[QUOTE="900fine, post: 952594, member: 6036"]There are two reasons I'm in this hobby : 1) I like coins 2) I like coin people I love coin peeps. They're intruiging. As a group, they are well above average intelligence. I'm amazed at how broad-ranging this hobby is. Some folks are interested in subtleties of die marriage and die state. Some collect expensive early gold, while others sort through pocket change (the most long-lived thread on this board is "Roll Searchers, post your results !") And I think that all collecting goals have equal merit. Billionaire collectors are [I]not[/I] "better" than roll-searchers. Yes, we can be a bit quirky. For some reason, we're fascinated when a reverse leaf lines up in the middle of the letter "D" instead of past the right edge. What's wrong with that ? To say that "coin collectors are sad people" is another instance of "intolerance of people who think differently". [I]That[/I] is what is sad.[/QUOTE]
