<p>[QUOTE="ma-shops, post: 2966720, member: 14506"]I think that's right at the moment. The collectors are not as young as they were years ago...But it is our task to change this and give the newbies a chance, interest them in such hobbies. Best example is the daughter of my boss... she is 11 or 12 years old (I guess-not 100% sure) and they attended last week on the F.U.N. convention in Florida. She was excited to be part of it and I am happy that there are still kids who are interested in things besides TV, computers, social media or smartphones... On top she went to the YN (Young Numismatists) Program, which was organized by the F.U.N. convention. I think it's great that there are such possibilities which are hosted by these associations and we need to spread the word!!!! </p><p>Many people you can find also on Instagram for example. Nice to look at and to catch up with likeminded people...Seriously, if this kind of passion/hobby "dies out" a little piece of history and personal values dies with it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
