<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 4046672, member: 112&quot;]With all due respect Sam, no, that aint it. </p><p><br /></p><p>I agree with your comment that the number of State Quarter &quot;collectors&quot; would dwarf the number of Lincoln and Morgan collectors combined. But the reason I don&#039;t consider them is because I don&#039;t consider the vast number of people who assemble State Quarters as being real coin collectors. </p><p><br /></p><p>And no, I&#039;m not being a purist or elitist or anything of the kind. I know you&#039;ve known me far, far too long to ever think that, but plenty of others who don&#039;t and haven&#039;t known me might think it. But that is definitely not the case. I&#039;m not an elistist or purist about anything ! </p><p><br /></p><p>But the vast majority of people who collected and still collect State Quarters collect them and only them - and not because they have any interest in coins ! They did it because they thought it was cool or something - another fad that they too had to get involved in. </p><p><br /></p><p>I define a coin collector as being somebody who has an actual interest in the hobby - not somebody who jumps the bandwagon of a current fad.</p><p><br /></p><p>But if you wanna count &#039;em - hey, more power to ya.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
