Been collecting off and on for about 20 years. My father has been at it most of his life, metal detecting, roll searching etc. He recently started putting together albums for my kids. This has me interested again! I'm not interested in anything specific, not looking to flip or make money. I've been involved with some more "stressful" hobbies in my life and look forward to something where I can just sit down once and awhile and take some time with it.
The key is to enjoy the hobby. It's not a pet where you have some obligation that has to be dealt with every day. The coin book doesn't actually care if you look at it today or tomorrow.
