<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1124421, member: 39&quot;]A little strange, I think: When it comes to Ireland, you seem to take British coinage into account - but when it comes to the US, you don&#039;t? The introduction of a new currency, I fully agree here, is always a good starting (or stopping) point for a coin collector. But that would not explain why, for example, around here, e.g. Austria and Germany, collecting is pretty popular.</p><p><br /></p><p>Most of the reasons I can think of have already been mentioned here. A fairly stable economy is an important factor. And of course you need money that you can buy coins with. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Collecting coins used to be called a hobby of kings because royalty and affluent nobility could more easily afford it ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
