To be quite honest, in all the years I have collected I have never had a friend to share the hobby with in person. Oh I've known hundreds, even thousands of them - but they were always long distance friends or people I only saw once or twice a year at shows. And when we would see each other - it was great ! Perhaps that makes it even better, I don't know. But I've never been much of one for the organized local coin club - it just doesn't fit my style or schedule, never has. I much prefer this type of venue where I can come and go as I please and yet still share with my love for the hobby with many, many others. I've made some very close friends in this hobby via the internet. Quite a few of them I have managed to meet in person with them or myself traveling long distances for the express purpose of doing so. Those friends will stay with me for life and I always look forward to seeing them again. But if I saw them every day, I dunno, maybe it wouldn't be the same. So to me, it's kind of like what you collect - you have to find your niche, what suits you personally. And for me it's the internet - it just works and I am quite happy with it.
