You know you're a coin junkie when...

finish the sentence



...you spend hours and hours looking at the high priced coins in the magazine ads, then get excited when you get a Canadian penny in your change.:mouth:

You drive all over town visiting banks spending more money in gas than the value of the 2 40% silver half dollors you found, but you are happy because your collection of silver coins just increased...

 

...you force everyone in your family to bring their pocket change to you for inspection.

"What, you got a penny back from that burrito? Let me see it."

 

Your car tag is Coins.

 

You dream of rare coins instead of women. :whistle:

 

What's cheaper...

...women or coins?

 

Wow, this reflects on my life quite a bit.

Post #1...Check!
Post #2...none of my local banks carry half dollars
Post #3...Check!
Post #4...maybe someday
Post #5...Check :rolling: (the key is to dream about women WITH coins...)

I will add: When you can't really afford to get new coins, so you create endless charts and graphs tracking the collection you do have! (Check!)

 

Hey, whats wrong with that? :kewl:

 

You dump $25 worth of cents into the coin counter at the bank and then bring the slip to the teller and ask for a box of cente!

 

....You bend over and pick up a cent off the ground and check it for errors.

 

Stop by the local bank and purchase $100.00 worth of presidential dollars a week and spend them.

 

you visit CT more than once a day!

 

You spend your lunch time at work feeding nickels and dimes to the snack machine and hitting the coin return and keep repeating that untill you've looked at all the coins in the machine.

 

...you start checking friends, family and new people you meet for errors and varieties. :whistle: TC

 

You always have a loupe in your pocket and a Redbook in your car.

 

You start planning vacations around coin shows and coin shops you want to visit...and drag the family along with you.

When you go to the bank every day just to exchange money Oops

...when your visit to the grocery store starts with a trip by the CoinStar machine before you check your grocery list.......then go back and recheck the "reject" bin before you leave.

 

... when you still buy the Proof, Silver Proof, and Mint Sets plus other various offerings from the mint even at the ridiculous prices they are charging.
