I'm not sure that their categories for novice, serious, investor were all that well described. They should have talked about what that collection would look like to an outsider who inherits the collection.

I think there is also a useful distinction to be made between a broad collection (world coins, all eras of a country, a mix of ancients and moderns, etc.) and a deeply specialized collection (exhaustive VAM numbers, complete CPG variety sets for denominations, registry sets, mint error coin collections, etc.).

Good material. Thinking of serious, disciplined numismatics as a stewardship responsibility--interesting angle!
