    Drat, and here I was hoping that you accidentally mailed them to me and they would turn up in my mailbox any day now. :( I can never get lucky like that.

    Congrats @stevex6

    ahaha => yes, amazingly it had almost been two weeks since I last went underground (man, I'm getting old and lazy in my later years, eh?)

    Oh, and thanks for all of the coin-support during my crisis ... yah, I really thought that I may have accidentally tossed 'em out, so I was super happy this morning when I discovered 'em!!

    :D

    It's like I've won it for a second time!! (it's a cheap thrill)

    => hey, maybe I should get hammered and hide all of my coins around the yard ... and then when I wake-up, it'll be like an Easter Egg hunt!!

    Or not!! (*phew* => I'm glad that all of the drama is over)

    ... I was getting tired of looking in the same places for the 20th time, expecting to find it, somehow!! (exhausting my inner-energy!)

    First place I look next time => in my work boots!!

    Legitimate question: How much does the value of an ancient coin decline per each day stuck in the toxic and festering environment that is @stevex6 's work boot? :yuck:

    Maybe I should make him an offer before someone else does. Stevex6, I'll take the whole lot for 50 cents. Thanks. :rolleyes:

    Woot! So they were in the boots... we should've thought of that from the start. And there people were thinking they may have been in some place silly like the fridge :rolleyes:. J/k. Glad they turned up, Steve :).

    The kids were home all that time, cool.
    Boots huh? Great hiding place I'll have to remember that. Nobody would think to look in there.
    And another plus, your wife still don't know about them, maybe! :D

    And on a side note, what does the fact that we hide our purchases say about us, our relationships and our--dare I say it??--addiction to little discs of metal? "Yes, honey, I PROMISE that these are the only 5 coins I bought at the coin show on Saturday!" "No, I've HAD those other 13 already for AGES. I'm holding them in my left hand while I show you the 5 new ones in my right because I'm balancing out my weight. I ALWAYS do this since today, honey!"
