<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 602202, member: 11521&quot;]The 600:1 ratio (coin collectors to currency collectors on CoinTalk) is not correct. You are assuming that EVERY CoinTalk member who is not one of the 30 active currency collectors is a coin collector. I&#039;m sure there are many CT members who are not among the &#039;30&#039; but who collect coins &amp; currency or currency only (but to a less conspicuous degree than the &#039;30&#039;). </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Also, I would be willing to bet that a <b>HUGE</b> portion of the 18,000 CT members are not active members and should not be included in your count of CT coin collectors. A large number of CT members have only one or two posts asking the value of a coin, why their Lincoln Cent has Kennedy&#039;s image stamped into it, etc. and have never returned. Those thousands of inactive &quot;members&quot; should not be counted. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My guess is that of <u>active</u> CT members the ratio of coin collectors to currency collectors is closer to 15 or 20 to 1, not 600 to 1.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
