<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Limes, post: 7286673, member: 101013&quot;]Thanks for replying. I&#039;m not looking to start a discussion on the working of markets or anything (had some of those in the near past already!). It simply makes me sad to see those kinds of side effects, and I also seem to enjoy the hobby a bit less, due to the increasing prices. I&#039;m just hoping the first will turn out okay for people and the second will prove to be temporary.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, indeed! Collecting is evolutionary in that sense, that there are so many interesting coins out there and it&#039;s hard to predict but all the more interesting, to see where our individual collecting interests will take us next. In the beginning of my very short collecting era (just 6 years) it seems my interests have already shifted: from the nerva-antonine dynasty, to the imperatorial and early julio-claudio dynasty and now I catch myself eyeballing republican coins more (which is due to DonnaML for posting all those great republican denarii!). All Roman, though... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>EDIT: just to be clear, a shift in interest doesn&#039;t mean I&#039;ve sold off the coins collected due to a previous interest. And a new interest doesn&#039;t completey delete the old interest <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
