<p>[QUOTE=&quot;brassnautilus, post: 2291645, member: 74300&quot;]I think you guys are only counting the hardcore collectors, and trade show population only represent a small portion of those.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are around 7 billion people in the world, seven thousand millions. If one in a hundred collects (I don&#039;t think the 1% figure counted people with piggybanks full of quarters) then we have 70 million. Discount some the places where this wasn&#039;t part of the culture, say 50M.</p><p><br /></p><p>If the definition of an &quot;ancient coin collector&quot; was someone that collected coins and also keeps a number of ancients, then I don&#039;t see how that number would not account for at least 5% of all coin collectors (10% was probably an exaggeration). Ok, let&#039;s say 2%, that&#039;s still 1mil...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
