You’d think coin collecting would be less popular, but according to the dealer, no. Like the Presidential dollar coins and the ten-year run of state quarters a while ago before the eagle quarters came back sparked renewed interest.

Stamp collecting is dead, however, according to him, between forever stamps and paying bills online/sending emails. Somewhere in here or the safe deposit box is my mother’s stamp collection.
