<p>[QUOTE="jmon, post: 2055371, member: 19422"]I attend meetings at a local coin club monthly. We typically have someone speak and an auction. The speakers are, at least for every meeting I have been to in the last 4 years, members. However, given the diversity of most coin clubs you can learn something, or at least a different perspective, at each meeting. The auction is also rewarding IMO. You never know what you will find and often times I find myself buying something I normally wouldn't just because it is such a deal. </p><p><br /></p><p>In short to me - should someone attend coin club meetings? Absolutely! While you may not get something huge from every meeting, the sum of the whole is well worth the couple of hours you spend a month. And, since most of us do not have someone standing by waiting to talk about our addiction (except the spouse who thinks we are nuts for, and wants us to stop, spending 3, 4, 5 figures on a half of a penny), it's nice to see a few people every now and again with the same passions we have. Think of it as Coin Collectors Anonymous (except for the whole admitting you have a problem bit).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
