<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1675816, member: 26302&quot;]The EXACT SAME discussion took place in 1978, 1985, 1993, 2004, and today. Each and every time people bemoan &quot;lack of young kids&quot;, and &quot;lack of women&quot; in the hobby and predict its doomed. It comes up all of the time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Simple fact is coin collecting in a middle aged man hobby. Always has been, always will be for some reason.</p><p><br /></p><p>Adjusted for inflation, I do not see the price of morgan dollars, or most collectible coins being out of line. Even a $8000 chain cent in G is about the same its always been. Its always been expensive, its just expensive used to mean $1000, now its $8000.</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I think slabs have taken a lot of fun out of the hobby. Yes, I understand they have prevented people from getting burned as well, but its simply more fun to be able to hold your coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think this is why ancients have taken off like they have. We still get to hold our coins. That is just my opinion though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
