<p>[QUOTE=&quot;samclemens3991, post: 26404819, member: 82181&quot;][USER=102022]@masterswimmer[/USER] .&nbsp; I have a different opinion on new young coin collectors.&nbsp; I too am part of the generation that found coins because coins found me.&nbsp; In my day it was a matter of having something or some experience that became the nexus for becoming a collector.&nbsp; Usually thru collecting from circulation.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Today&#039;s young collectors are NOT getting their start with coin collecting as naive individuals.&nbsp; They have access to massive amounts of information.&nbsp; We (I) was trained to think only stodgy old men with thick glasses were experts.&nbsp; I have had the chance to chat with 3 different young collectors over the summer.&nbsp; All 3 were under 16.&nbsp; All 3 allready had in depth information and specialized&nbsp; fields of interest.&nbsp; This ain&#039;t your gramma&#039;s approach to coin collecting.&nbsp; James[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
