[QUOTE="clembo, post: 349630, member: 8033"]My wife just got back to work after 8 months so I can relate all too well. I've been collecting for a long time and believe me it sucked as I'm not into roll searching or pocket change. Just can't find those 19th Century type coins that way. After months I finally DID buy something. Just got a bag of 5000 wheat cents (only the second time I've done that in 30+ years). Enjoying it actually as it does kill of lot of "collecting" time especally with my lousy vision. I use a 16X loupe on every coin so this is going to take a while. I'm also sorting by decade as well as "coins"of interest". Finding some nice AU and BU coins a smattering of Indian Cents so far. I work so this endeavor will tie up a month of my time and do plan to sell a lot of them. Best find so far a 1919-D in AU. Hang in there. I put my collecting on hold for years at one point so it can be done. Getting back into it is really a pleasure at that point. clembo[/QUOTE]
