It's no mystery that people aren't as interested in coin collecting as previous decades; especially the younger generations. A 14-year-old collector recently stated that he was convinced that the younger generations believe coins and coin collecting are just for "old people." This just reinforces the reason why the hobby isn't being expanded to kids and young adults. This presentation will identify what is causing the problem and the solutions along with examples of organizations that are reaching out to the younger collectors. Speaker: Delmar Mineard Jr.
