<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 119737, member: 4552&quot;]The way I look at it is our society is changing. Our Mint is changing. The art or hobby of coin collecting is vanishing. It will soon enough be similar to stamps, beanie babies, baseball/footbal cards. There will still be some of each in the near future but I forsee an end to this recent boom in coin collecting. Just as with stamps, our government is producing just to much of a variety of coins which is nice for a while but will make it so there are just to many of each to collect and so it gets shelved. You can already see it at coin shows. Hardly any YN&#039;s. At coin stores, no YN&#039;s. At flea markets around here where there are coins for sale, no YN&#039;s. Nowadays there is just to many other interest such as TV, computer games, computer interenet open forums, IPODs, CD players, DVD machines, etc. for the younger gereration. Why do things that don&#039;t respond or move when there is so much else that does for the younger generation. And many adults are somewhat responsible. I&#039;m sure that many people that go to coin shows have a child or grandchild but no one brings them. Interest should at least attempt to be started at home.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
