Well, today me and my dad were at a shoe store and my dad picked up a shoe on display, and said it looked worn out. My instant response was, "look for wear on the high points"
Anyone else ever say something to do with coins in a completely unrelated situation?
I'm not that crazy, at least by comparison, am I!?!

Could be worse, you could have said the shoe is worth five double eagles and ten Morgans.
You talking about the price of Nikes? I think they are hyper inflated. Artificial high price for a swish on the side of basketball shoes.Could be worse, you could have said the shoe is worth five double eagles and ten Morgans.
Unfortunately its not just Nikes anymore. There are other brands with sneakers also in the hundreds.
A little of topic : did anyone hear about the newly released $1000 dollar sneaker? crazy
Didn't hear of them, but I agree, shoes are getting out of hand. Check these out:

As long as you do not send your shoes off to PCGS to get graded, you're fine.
Haveing the shoes slabed will help them hold the value.
New Balance shoes. Manufactured by Americans in the USA! Fair prices, too.
For some reason though, not a cool shoe to wear here in the USA. Sad, isn't it?
LOL.... I think I've used coin terms on other circumstances as well. Totally not related to numismatics but the terms came in handy....
Yes. My dad and I wear New Balance because they are nice quality shoes. You can say I'm not the coolest kid around.
sadly, they aren't 100% anymore. i believe the last estimate was around 25% of their shoes were domestically made.
...and this one belongs to the reds!
