Re: at here how many guys love collect coins?

There is very often an overlap between Phaleristics and Numismatics. I went from being a numismatist to philatelist to phalerist (as well as some other things including deltiologist) and I believe many people do start with Numismatics before becoming a Phalerist. They have lots of things in common and all three selections are often found for sale in the same venue.

I've not picked up many coins recently but I do have over 135,000 coins in the collection. The phaleristic items will have to grow in number considerably before they catch up.

I too started collecting coins at quit an early age (8). Coins however, don't have a tracable history. Soviet orders and some medals do. That and the fact that I studied history and the fact that I love Russia and went there with my father since the 80s, made me focus on soviet orders.

Yes, same here. I've been a numismatist for 35 years. Gives you a keen eye and definitely is a good prerequisite for becoming a philatelist.

of cause orders and medals are good and less than coins, and not easy to have. but coins is a big collect market.
