[QUOTE="Bonedigger, post: 171281, member: 4367"]No Sir :), you didn't misunderstand the question. Having an indebt knowledge of numismatics is not required, just a group of 5 or more coins which have some sort of meaning or value to the holder, sentential or otherwise. I think some are trying to place too much emphasis on the definition of numismatics. A simple collector can be just that. A simple collector. For example, We (My Brother or I since my mom passed) have a Chinese Chippendale mahogany love seat, claw-n-ball feet, hand carved. Belonged to my great grand-mother. I don't know exactly when it was constructed (1700s??? I guess) or what country it was made in. I do know (documentation is in storage) it's a Chippendale, therefore considered an antique collector in some circles and not a collector in others. The loosest interpretation of 5 special coins applies here :) Take Care Ben[/QUOTE]
