[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 8051357, member: 105098"]From my perspective the hobby isn't dying at all and it's most likely growing. Kids may or may not have interest in coin collecting, but many people do get into it when they are older and have money to spend rather than buying toys or cards or candy with their disposable money as they did as a kid. I'd say this year was a good year overall for dealers who claim to have trouble keeping inventory and auction houses looking for people wanting to sell. Is the hobby dying? From my perspective, no worse than it was 40-30-20-10 or 5 years ago, it might actually be better right now.[/QUOTE]
