Numismatist“Numismatists study the physical attributes of the payment media rather than the use and function in an economy. The term numismatics is often used interchangeably with the coin collection, though it connotes more intensive study than just simply collecting coins. It could be said that all numismatists are coin collectors, but not all coin collectors are numismatists.” Investopedia

  5. My dad was always interested in coins, saving the silver ones and state ones. I worked with a guy in college who was always changing out coins in the register and would give me fun facts! I guess I know at least one!
