On number 9″Do you really need your wife and kids tagging along?”is a very offensive comment to us Ladies out here that are serious coin collectors.You would be surprised at the knowledge we have to share about our coin collecting experience.My husband always ask my advice when it comes to purchasing coins.Please keep in mind that there are a lot of Women coin collectors out here too,and some of us just might have that special coin that will spark a lot of interest.So don’t leave us out.

I agree with Maria. My wife is as much a part of my collection as the coins are.I have had her around longer than some of my coins and like to show her off.Oh yeah, I am one of those cranky old men!

#9 roflmao…Do you really believe that? I have been going to the fun with wife and kids for 7 years now.We always have a great time.I have never gotten the impression that they should not be there.I dont think the organizers of the fun show would appreciate your views posted on the internet.I know it offends me and all familys that go.

For number 9, please consider that women also collect coins. “Do you really need your wife and kids tagging along?” Seriously, it is offensive and tiresome to know that most men I meet at a coin show assume I should be kept off the bourse floor. You should also keep in mind that the hobby will die out if it remains in the hands of cranky, old men.
