<p>[QUOTE=&quot;andrew289, post: 197461, member: 6463&quot;]My theory</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Most of the coin guys that I know are shy, introverted and a bit socially awkward when it comes to the ladies. When you can&#039;t get a date on a weekend night, one usually turns to a solitary hobby like coins, stamps, sports cards or comics. They find comfort in hanging out and talking shop with other collectors in silimar situations. Clubs form and activities start up. Eventually, they marry and start a family but keep the hobby as an escape from the daily duldrums of life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Girls on the otherhand are more extroverted and need interaction with others so they shop, talk on the phone alot and hang out with their friends all the time. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Girls extroverted and coin guys introverted = exact opposites.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Many of the girls in coins that I know are the ones that are not the &quot;popular girls&quot; maybe they couldn&#039;t find a date on the weekends either so they hung out with the coin guys.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With the advent of the state quarter program, the dynamic is changing. Many women are dealers and work in coin stores as sale people because most of the customers are men. Who would you rather buy from a pretty girl or a grumpy old fart who is bickering with you over a grade or two. All she has to do is smile and say, &quot;sure, sugar it&#039;s a MS63&quot; and you just fork over the cash. It&#039;s marketing.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With an influx of money and huge price swing ..the women will come. Make coin collecting cool and the women will come. Make it all about the bling ..and girls will come.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
