    I am not sure.

    I have not bought, sold, or traded a single coin in 7 days 13 hours and 12 minutes.

    However, I put 2 upgrades in an old cent album, searched some rolls of 58 D's for errors, and looked at a box of dimes nearly every day. I don't count looking at nickels or state quarters, because everyone does that.

    I think you are a coinaholic only if you Must BUY coins. That's not me, I can look at things I already have.

    (Could I be in denial ?)

    Definitely in denial Gary. Its not the act of purchasing, its the act of consuming the coins. You may not have bought new examples, but you assuredly have continued to consume your "stash".

    Also, even worst, I believe you have broken one of the ten commandments on this board in front of our very eyes, "Though shalt not covet thy neighbors coins".

    Well since I registered to CT my motto says I'm a coinaholic, so it must be true.

    But I swear I could stop any time :devil:

    With all the stress of waiting for the 25th aniv sets to get here, I couldn't help myself. I bought another 20th aniv 2006 set from eBay. $349 in the OGP. I'm a coinaholic & I'm proud of it! :hail:

    Coinaholism is a disease and should be treated as such.

    I got my 1st coin, an 1889 Morgan from my Grandfather when I was 8, since then...
    I changed my middle name to COIN.
    I put a Merc in the bottom of my wine glass.
    I buy foreign bulk from the coin shop by 5 pound increments.
    I have so much OGP I have no idea what's what any more.
    I have hundreds if not thousands of coins on all horizontal surfaces in my home office that I've graded but never put into 2x2's.
    I get excited when my kids get loose teeth so I can play Tooth Fairy!
    I actually met up with a Craigslist seller for a "funky penny" and BOUGHT IT for $5. (It was a science project electroplated 1986)
    I once tried to figure out how to decorate my Christmas tree with an MS69 set of PCGS ASE's.
    Yeah I am a COINAHOLIC!
    AND PROUD OF IT!
    It's one of the only addictions that's also an Investment!
