That's a true Numismatist.

    Just a statement?

    What if I prefer to just be a collector?

    What if I never discover anything new about my series? Am I then a failed would-be numismatist? Or is it sufficient to search and find nothing?

    If I just research on the internet, does that count?

    Will you be issuing certificates to verify who is or isn't a numismatist?

    It's always best to do as much of your own research first. Then come here for second opinions and conformation.

    Disclaimer: I'm not a dealer, trader, grader, investor or professional numismatist. I'm just a hobbyist. (To protect me but mostly you! 🤣 )

    A person can be a “true numismatist” without doing research on any particular series.

    I know you're not a laugh track guy, but the emojis would be helpful here and there. I certainly wouldn't think any different of you if you started using them sparsely.
