So here it is: Gerry Fortin....."Persistence is the key to building a great coin collection. Also, we are the curators of our collections for many generations to come....don't doctor or enhance your coins!" I thoroughly understand and accept my place in the great cycle of coin collecting. I also accept my duty to my sister. It is not at all a tough road to travel. But I have been working on it for about six years now! Report this Post to the Staff

Dusto5 Valued Member United States 84 Posts	Posted 02/14/2013 11:08 am Truer words have never been spoken. As well as a heck of a cool concept. As long as we humans can keep our society, the coins we have will make their way into the hands of others. At some point in time, common US coins will be like Roman Empire coins - in the hands of the relative few. In reality, the coins are right at the begining stages, since many of the "classic" coins were only really pulled out of circulation within the last 100 years or so. What will happen to them over the next 500 or 1000 years? Who knows? But care-takers, yes. They can't come with us, even if they're buried with us. Report this Post to the Staff
