Here's the repository of quizzes we've been running periodically on the site,
along with all of the results. Hope you find them interesting, I sure did...

Here's the last quiz we ran before "BeSeen" (the
service we were using for the quizlets) went out of business. Didn't seem
like too many people were interested in these quizzes, so I dropped them
once BeSeen hit the dirt. (GB - 8/23/02) |

Looks like child care at club meetings wouldn't necessarily
be a big draw, and for some it might even be a detractor (all the
grandparents I'll bet). Plus, it doesn't seem like a lot of folks had an
opinion they cared to share. (GB - 4/8/02) |

It seems that most folks who visit our site are fanatics for
the 50 States quarter program. The U.S.
Mint has lots of material on their website regarding this popular
series. (GB - 12/16/01) |

Well, we didn't have as many respondents to this quiz as
some of our past ones, but it's interesting nonetheless. You can see the
tremendous percentage of new folks (less than 6 months) that are having
their impact on the hobby. I wonder how many are collecting the new state
quarters. I think we just came up with the next quiz... (GB - 9/18/01) |

Wow, I was out of the loop for a while (got married, went on
a honeymoon, bought a condo, moved...whew!) We had 200 people tell us over
the course of three months that most folks' oldest coin was in the 76-150
years old bracket. My guess is that most of those are US coins (see
previous quizlet on nationality breakdowns US hit 50%). (GB - 8/1/01) |

Seems like there's a fair spread of folks collecting out
there. A few people had very sparse collections, while quite a large
number of people seem to have huge collections. Over a third of the
respondents had over 1000 coins...guess they've been at it for a while.

This quiz shows the tremendous number of internet-savvy
people (they found our site didn't they) who aren't a member of any coin
club. What an incredibly unfortunate statistic! Well over half (and almost
two-thirds) of the respondents don't belong to any kind of club. What a
shame. (GB - 4/6/01) |
 |
Here's the first quiz we ran. It was on the site for about
two weeks, and you can see that 74 people responded. Most folks (about a
third) were collectors of modern US coins, with "other
specialty" coming in second. Ancients (some of the most beautiful
coins in existence in my opinion) came in last, tied with people who
claimed they didn't collect. Oh, well. Just shows you that we're all
different. (GB - 3/9/01) |
