When you go with your son on his class field trip to the the Ft. Wayne Children's Zoo, buy zoo tokens for rides, and keep the nicest two for your collection of exonumia. I would grade these as high AU, with great luster. Hi, my name is PJ Hankins...and I'm a coin collector.
Well, they say admitting you have a problem is often the first step...lol. Hope you all enjoyed the trip. BTW: I think you should send them off to PCGS. TC
You know you have the bug when you can't spend a single coin because you forgot your glasses in the house and you didn't look at the coins in your purse and you pay .89 cents with a debit card, BECAUSE your afraid of spending the one!!
When you finally put your glasses on..LOL You see sooo much more..my loupe is my best friend.. But not my only friend I have the lamp too.. Can't see without the light
You are true sickies by any definition. In my case...I'm mildly ill when it comes to coins and PM's, but I'm a sickie for fishing, although not a fan of fishy odors or fishy ebay coin deals....nope.
Me too! Bass fishing...love it. My wife thinks I'm crazy for needing fishin stuff at home AND the lake. Trying to get her to see the need for two boats too...it's not working! What kind of fishin u like?
When you buy so many coins that the lady running the post office forgets to give you a package because there are so many she has to cradle them in her arms to get them to the counter. I honestly think i have an eBay addiction.
When in a gas station you frequent, you lose your sense of time poking around the take-a-penny dish. With a sudden reemergence to the outside world you look up with a start, to see the clerk grinning and shaking their head, but still willing to scan the till for goodies.
LMB is my first choice. I will fish for almost any fish that's biting, but liike you, Bass fishing comes first. I fish Lake Casitas in SO CAL mostly. It's a lake that grows huge Largemouth, although it's fished very hard and can get pretty tough at times. So far, my personal best is 13 1/2 lbs, but lost one which was quite a bit bigger. Would this be considered off topic?....LOL
I find that completely normal, but I've had a chuck e cheese token collection ongoing for over thirty years.
HOLY MOLY, the largest I've ever caught is 5.5 pounds...for an Indiana boy that's HUGE! Isn't the large mouth record holder from SO CAL? Prolly, but I'm the OP
Lol I do the same thing when we bring the kids to Chucky Cheese or this other local amusement center. I've found Chucky Cheese tokens dating back to 1980 on visits there which is pretty neat.
The first step is to admit you have a problem. Nah, I don't have a problem. No problem at all....except finding more coins I "need".
There was a 25 lb. Bass caught, but not a record because it was foul hooked. Another potential record breaker was caught in SO CAL, weighed on certified scales but not verified..so that one didn't qualify either.
