I turned 18 late last year, so I fall into the 13-18 category. It seems like coin collecting subdues during the mid-life crisis, the numbers dwindle within that age group.

I'm grateful to make it to sixty-one, soon to be sixty-two. My goal is to keep making trips around the sun.

It seems like coin collecting subdues during the mid-life crisis, the numbers dwindle within that age group. @jacrispies, I was a very avid collector from around age 8 until around age 30, then I put the hobby aside for a number of years. Work, raising a family, and other priorities pushed it away, as well as the loss of my collection in a robbery around 1987. That last thing was sort of the nail in the coffin. So, not really a mid-life crisis thing (I handled that by buying a sports car  ), but just life in general. I started afresh around 1999 when the State Quarters were first issued. I started picking up proof sets and the odd type coin, and over the next decade my interest started gradually coming back. Then I met a fellow coin collector at work in 2012, and it seemed things exploded at that point and I got back all my old enthusiasm and passion for our hobby. Plus, my financial situation had vastly improved by that point - kids all finished with college and "off the payroll" for one thing - so I could afford to acquire some of the coins I'd only dreamed about back in my early days of collecting! Now, I've been retired for over 5 years and I have all the time in the world to enjoy this wonderful hobby. Member of SPMC, FCCB, ANA and ANS.

42 for me. However, sense of humor 12ish. I'm 63 and I've been married 42 years . My youngest grandkids (4 and 6) really appreciate my sense of humor; my wife, kids and oldest grandson (15) not so much  . |
