<p>[QUOTE="green18, post: 402583, member: 10103"]The hobby needs new blood to continue...that's been said many times. I want to see more young people (old as well) joining the hobby so that what we know and share (especially here at CT) can be passed along to them. In that way this hobby will never die. I try to inspire young people as they are the future. I keep a silver eagle in with my loose change and when at the store making a purchase that requires some small change I reach into my pocket and pull it out along with the dimes, nickels, pennys and quarters. Invariably there is always the question...what kind of coin is that? They're hooked. I've gotten their attention and I give them my little speach about what the coin is and where it came from and maybe ...I've inspired someone to collect. It's like you indicate Drusus..in one small way I try to be an ambassador for the hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
