    Would a naked coin collector be a "Nudeismatist"?

    I am a Numismahist.

    This describes me accurately because I enjoy studying the history of coins.

    I have three more versions:

    #1. - a female Supermodel coincollector - NumismaDISH;

    #2. - a coin collecting Basketball Hall Of Fame point guard (Bob Cousy or for the younger hoops fans, Steve Nash) - a NumismASSIST;

    #3. - a coin collecting drag queen - a numismaSWISH.
  • SanctionIISanctionII Posts: 12,234 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Two more I just thought up.

    #1. - a collector or dealer who desires to acquire a 1933 Saint - a numismaWISH;

    #2. - a collector of coins with a pescadorial theme (i.e. mermaid, etc.) - a numismaFISH.
