<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 557195, member: 8959&quot;]Here is a trivial but nevertheles interesting question to me.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve come across the term &quot;Darkside&quot; in U.S coin forums a few times already, and i gather it is used to refer to all of numismatics outside of U.S coinage. I am curious.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question is why?&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>To me darkside can either mean:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>1.&nbsp; it is the Unknown, therefore dark</p><p>2.&nbsp; it is so vast and complex we don&#039;t dabble with it</p><p>3.&nbsp; we prefer U.S coins (the rest is nice, but that is it)</p><p><br /></p><p>Does it cover Ancient coins as well in the minds of American collectors?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I don&#039;t mean to be provocative. Just want to be illuminated.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks</p><p><br /></p><p>Eduard[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
