<p>[QUOTE="pghpanthers2, post: 498443, member: 16767"]Very interesting article. I have often wondered what coin collecting will be like by the time I am retired (I am 22 now, so 45 years or so?). I know out of all of my friends, NONE of them would be the LEAST bit interested in collecting coins, stamps, cards, anything. Collecting coins would be considered boring among other things. I had a lengthy conversation with another collector who was about my fathers age who was thinking about selling his collection due to a lack of interest on behalf of his son. Kinda sad.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know I am a new user but I have been coming to this website for quite some time. My generation prefers to learn on the web in article or forum style compared to cracking open a book. As a result, it really is true that forums like this one are an excellent way for young(er) collectors to learn about the hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
