Your obsessed, you have a problem. Take a Break
Alright, I think everyone here is a bit too obsessed with coins. All you do is look at coins, talk about coins, and drool over coins. I think its time that I step in and tell you, you have a problem.

The only way to nip this in the butt, before you get too carried away, is to beg you to please take this intevention serious. You will need to drag yourselves away from your beloved coins and do something productive. Something that has nothing to do with coins what so ever. I would reccomend that you work on these JigSaw Puzzles every so often.

I think my wife would rather have me be obsessed about coins, than about some of my other hobbies......
as it is, she has only banned talk about coins around the dinner table.

Pretty challenging. It took me 41 minutes to do the 1916 penny. Based on the color, I didn't know what it was until I was over 50% complete.

I did one of Rickie's 2 dollar notes and that took 41 minutes as well.
