To me, though, a collector is someone who is knowledgable about coins in general, and more knowledgable about the coins they collect. I simply do not consider someone who casually puts aside some coins from circulation as they find them to be a real collector. Its more putting aside curiousities than serious collecting. My mother always put aside half dollars, dollar coins, bicentennial coins she got in change. I would not consider her a coin collector.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
