<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Stephen Seelig, post: 2830623, member: 84462&quot;]Back in the 80’s I used to get tables at some of the local coin shows.&nbsp; In the late 80’s I started taking my daughter with me.&nbsp; She loved going and meeting the other dealers. Some dealers took the time to show her different items and talk to her. Others not so much. She has even put together a somewhat complete set of buffalo nickels on her own. She’s missing the over date and the 3-legged buff but she is still looking.&nbsp; She’s told me of a few times she has gone into some out of the way shops in her travels and asking about coins she is looking for and have gotten some very strange responses. Surprised that a woman would be interested in collecting. I still encourage her collecting by adding items to her collections.&nbsp; She teaches elementary school now and shows her collections to the kids and gets lot of positive responses.&nbsp; If a dealer just takes the time with the beginners there is hope that we will have some future numismatists.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
