<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 8511588, member: 105571&quot;]Well, Randy, I&#039;ll go way out on a limb and venture it&#039;s not menopause.&nbsp; But, it&#039;s not uncommon for interest to wane after goal (s) have been achieved.&nbsp; I find for myself that the coins offer less that&#039;s interesting after I&#039;ve found out just about everything about them that there is available to know.&nbsp; This may be heresy to some, but there is, relatively speaking, a smaller amount of information that is available to know about US coins than other coin/currency areas of collecting.&nbsp; It is possible to reach your personal information saturation point with US coins much sooner than with a much broader field such as Ancients.</p><p><br /></p><p>For others, that curiosity and restlessness that marks the auto-didact leads them to astronomy, or orchids, or other fields that require acquisition of knowledge and skills in order to succeed.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I feel that ennui that you&#039;re experiencing, I start a new collection;&nbsp; one that requires some research and knowledge in order to collect intelligently.&nbsp;&nbsp; If the new collecting interest also requires teaching oneself some new skills, that is an added&nbsp; attractant.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
