<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sakata, post: 2997702, member: 23778&quot;]I&#039;m not really sure that anyone does start collecting.&nbsp; I think that, like many things, you find you have been doing something without realizing it.&nbsp; If you have an interest in coins then you are probably looking at them and maybe buying a few without really considering yourself to be collecting.&nbsp; After some time, and it could be a few weeks or a few years, you find you are much more aware of those you have and you actively seek out others from various sources.&nbsp; At that point you have become a collector.&nbsp; As with many endeavors, to say &quot;I am going to start collecting XXX&quot; does not often result in a long term commitment.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
