<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TypeCoin971793, post: 3305062, member: 78244&quot;]I don’t make predictions about my generation getting into coins. I’m sure many individuals collecting today would have been pegged as never collectiong coins when they are kids. People change as they grow up, get money, settle down, and get wiser. People have been touting for decades that the current generation of kids would spell the doom of coin collecting, but the market is stronger than it has ever been. Many collectors of US coins who jump in at 40 years old or so do it because of nationalism and wanting a (easy-to-store) physical tie to American history. That will never go away. I’m sure this exists in many different cultures. Plus the art market will never go away, and Greek coins are small works of art. I got into medieval coins because I was affected by the visible medieval history when I toured Europe.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is no telling what will affect people or attract their interest as they grow up. All we need is 1-10 out of every 1000 kids from this generation to gain a serious interest in coins as they get older, and the market will remain stable. Put into that perspective, the future of the hobby is probably not as grim as you think.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
