And it's not just those in the small towns or semi-isolated areas like you. I lived in a pretty good sized city for almost 30 years - 1.5 m people. And there were still only 5 coin shops in all that. And in that almost 30 years, I bought maybe 5 coins, and only from 2 of those coin shops. And 4 of them were bullion coins !</p><p><br /></p><p>My coins were all purchased by mail, or online, from individual collectors that I mostly met online, or from coin shows. And I had two extensive collections ! Simply put the nature of the hobby is that ya do what ya gotta do.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
