<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Stevearino, post: 3045006, member: 74571&quot;][USER=112]@GDJMSP[/USER], I admire your willingness to change the focus of your numismatic passion from accumulation to education and encouragement.&nbsp; Now, if EVERYONE did that the hobby would change in a dramatic way.&nbsp; Nevertheless three things have me thinking about my collection (hoard, according to my wife):</p><p><br /></p><p>1.&nbsp; Several threads such as this one over the past three years I’ve been a member;</p><p><br /></p><p>2.&nbsp; Your sharing, Doug, about the value of aspects of numismatics other than accumulation;</p><p><br /></p><p>3.&nbsp; A photo I saw last week of Mohandas Gandhi’s worldly possessions, other than clothing, at the time of his death: two pairs of sandals, a pair of glasses, a small book and a tiny carving of the “See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil” monkeys.&nbsp; (I think my recollection is fairly accurate).</p><p><br /></p><p>All this and other influences have me pondering where I go from here, both in my own collecting and how I approach trying to expose my grandchildren to the hobby.</p><p><br /></p><p>Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
