What is your definition of a "serious collector"? I must have missed
that somewhere down the line.

Oh, he graced us with that, you may have missed it. Apparently anyone
other than collectors of ancient and/or Roman coins (I forget which he
said) is just an accumulator. Who knew?

That said, I've got some old Roman stuff, and (shrug) I don't see any
point in getting any more of 'em

An ignoramus like you probably wouldn't.
