<p>[QUOTE="AdamL, post: 383239, member: 6029"]I have actually noticed a few more black folks at shows in the last 9 months to a year or so. I have alot of black friends and acquaintences, and I know 3 black men who I would say are accumulators of either silver or foreign coins and banknotes. One of my best friends, a black guy, always wants to buy whatever he sees me with. Its usually not something I want to sell, but I have sold him a couple of bags full of foreing coins for dirt cheap, hoping to get him a little more interested. I have invited him, and his uncle who hoarded silver back in the day, to go to a show with me but they always seem to be to busy. It would be nice to see more people of all races in the hobby, and I would absolutely love to see more ladies at shows, hehehe. But for whatever reason, white males currently seem to be the people most interested in numismatics. Some people in this thread have made some good points about why that is probably the case. I don't think there is one single thing that can completely explain it though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
