For Them, Coins are All in the Family
June 4, 2026
Numismatics is a hobby often passed on down from one generation to the next, and sometimes it’s a pursuit shared by two generations – frequently parent and child. As calendars herald the arrival of Mother’s Day in May and Father’s Day in June, it’s a timely occasion to profile a few collectors who share just such family ties.
These collectors have turned their intergenerational love of numismatics to successful heights, an achievement that each could posit happened in large part because of the love, support, and guidance they receive from their family. Surely, each of the people featured in this article have the skill, passion, and talent to achieve great things in the hobby on their own. However, it’s clear that – at least for these parent-child numismatists – the hobby is something best enjoyed when it’s all in the family.
