OUR COMMUNITY

Fred Schwan writes: "I liked Cliff Mishler's discussion
about what to call ourselves. I have spent time pondering
this difficult question. I never came up with as good an
answer as Cliff (no surprise there), but I would like to
make a refinement. I certainly agree with the community
aspect. However, I think that hobby community is much
better than coin community on a few counts. Coin community
seems to exclude paper money collectors and it includes a
few people who are not numismatists. I am thinking of people
who work with money on a professional, non numismatic level:
people who work at the mints, drive the Brinks trucks, etc.
