Is Our Coin-Hobby Becoming More, Or Less Popular?

gienzy1, your probably right. Just like so many other items that have dropped in popularity. When actually not really dropping, just changing direction. As you mentioned the internet, ebay for example, makes it so easy to buy stuff. No driving to a store, no parking next to idiots that smash their doors into your car. No high gas prices for your car. And to have a store that only sells coins too could slowly fade since the internet is so much easier.
Coin shows too are possibly mostly going to fade due to some of those situations.
I don't think this hobby will ever fade as with the Beanie Babies but sure might take a dive if China keeps up with all the fakes.
