<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Black Friar, post: 3233819, member: 76221&quot;]It&#039;s always been an old rich mans pastime.&nbsp; Coin cabinets and collections have been verified in digs in Rome with small cache&#039;s of obviously objects that indicate the owner had a purpose for the coins selected.</p><p><br /></p><p>I started collecting when I was seven years old or so and I&#039;m still at it.&nbsp; The hobby is adapting to the change in the culture of the hobby.&nbsp; It&#039;s always good to remember we are just care-takers of our coins, then to pass them on to future owner properly cared for.&nbsp; I firmly believe it will survive because it isn&#039;t just about the money, it&#039;s about meeting new friends, learning how coins were used in business, as well as a means of sharing information. It is a worthy pursuit.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The attachment is a British token struck by a chemist/slash druggist.&nbsp; It certqainly</p><p>made it&#039;s way to me because it was cherished by numerous owners since it was minted.&nbsp; That is our reponsibility, it&#039;s not always about the money, though money is a good thing.&nbsp; The great collections are our gift.&nbsp; Happy Thanksgiving to all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
