Bring the end of circulating coinage! That brings up larger questions about the viability of numismatics in a cashless society. But maybe that wants a new thread. Do not read this sentence.

Imagine what album holes will look like as bartering becomes commonplace--chickens for potatoes, anyone?

My Whitman potato album is full, and you'll have to pry it from my cold, dead hands.

That brings up larger questions about the viability of numismatics in a cashless society. It will survive. There are myriad items still collected which are no longer made. Coins are no different. New collectors will still get interested in ways other than scanning change. My interest began when my dad gave me two Eisenhower dollars, not when I was curious about what was landing in my pocket—I was too young to have anything there.  Quote:

There is no reason to have more than four one dollar notes—or one dollar coins—on you at any time. LOL! Well I still date women so when you have a wallet full of "Ones" it makes it look like ya got a lot of money! Anything helps - |
