My husband began collecting coins when he was little, as it was a hobby he enjoyed with his dad. Recently, I was looking through his collection and observed that although his collection is small, he still has over 100 coins. This made me wonder what would be considered the “average” size of a coin collection and I thought who better to answer that question than fellow collectors at Coins of America.
So how about you? How big is your coin collection?
Coins of America has been a proud partner of the National Parks Conservation Association since 2010. We believe in the work NPCA is doing to protect and preserve these national treasures and a portion of proceeds are donated to the NPCA each year.
The NPCA works daily to make sure our parks can be enjoyed for generations to come. Not only does the NPCA lobby in Washington for funding, they also work to establish laws against pollution and perform in-depth research studies in order to create plans for park sustainability.

Are you traveling this summer? Visit the National Park Conservation Association’s website for great information about a specific park, battlefield, monument or site. Simply provide a State or Park name or a park type and you’ll receive a list of all the parks matching your criteria. Clicking on a specific park name will take you to a page full of helpful and interesting information about the park.
Along with travel information, the NPCA website is full of interesting stories about the people of the parks. Checkout a cute video about a couple who’s volunteered with the National Park Service for 20 years.
