My woman wanted to help me pick a coin for the $20 LC set.....

So I let her... (she can't complain I went over budget with this when she made me do it lol)
Nothing fancy a nice simple 1848. I had her look at over 100s possibilities (48 being a common date)
Narrowed it down to 4-5 coins, but she kept coming back to this one with a "not so great" picture... after examining it myself I told her "go for it, i have good luck with bad pics" so we did.... Might be a bad pic but I think i got a very nice coin for $24 maybe I could have done better being such a common date... but it's not often the woman takes interest in my coins... (I gonna pay for this later i'm sure lol)... so here she is the sellers bad pic... 1848

Maybe she want new shoes ? lol jk

 

Can't be as bad as her telling me to buy the 1878 $2.5... That cost me a Ruby pendant lol

 

Speaking of rubies.... another recently bought sterling silver cat with a rubies in the collar and emerald eyes I bought for my cat figurine cat collection....

 

hehe nice... this was the pendant (and got suckered into buying her a new chain for it as well) PS. is a heat treated natural ruby.. could never have afforded a stone that large and clear otherwise
(I ain't no millionaire)

 

Wow that ruby is huge. how much $$$ ??? Happy wife = happy life. lol

 

even heat treated, i could have bought 3 1878s for it lol (6.25ct) if it was true natural think 1/2 mil. fortunatly I have friends in the business or it could have topped 7k
