Every coin collector has its own preference when it comes to what he/she is trying to collect.

In search for what category do i belong as a starter to this hobby of coin collecting, i found a very interesting topic and classification or types of coin collectors.

The 9 Types of Coin Collectors

By: Ursula Kampmann

  1. The "Classic Hunter" - Always hunting for completion of his/her collection with the "to buy" list in his hand.

  2. The "Speculator" - Aiming for a good profit from his purchases.

  3. The "Aesthete" - enjoying the beauty of the coins regardless of its price.

  4. The "Perfectionist" - wnated to have a perfect specimen in his/her collection.

  5. The "Rubbish Chute" - wants to own as many coins as possible. Doesn't mind the price.

  6. The "Self-Exposer" - speaks more of himself/herself than his/her coin collection.😁

  7. The "Researcher" - requires intensive knowledge about its collection. Mostly applies to medieval/ancient coin collectors.

  8. The "Local Patriot" - collects coins from a certain area to which he/she has a special relation for biographical reason.

  9. The "Historian" - Its interest is not on its beauty or condition of the coin but the story behind it.
