<p>[QUOTE=&quot;samjimmy, post: 87830, member: 3813&quot;]My wife probably wouldn&#039;t understand why I spent $$$ on a single coin.&nbsp; I showed her the last coin I got (20c piece), and built her up a bit, saying that I had lost many an auction (which is always true), trying to get one for under $100.&nbsp; So she guessed high on that one, which was good, as it cost me $115 <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>--</p><p><br /></p><p>It really is... the coins.. not you I suppose.&nbsp; After all, in the chain of command, they are pretty high up the ladder.</p><p><br /></p><p>You might be surprised at what may have really done it.&nbsp; Sure the colonials (which I&#039;m sadly addicted to) have done their share, as have the mid-1800&#039;s coins (a Civil War period coin never hurts).&nbsp; Then there are the gold coins and obsolete denominations.&nbsp; All very,very enticing.&nbsp; But this wasn&#039;t any of those...</p><p><br /></p><p>It was a Barber Half.</p><p><br /></p><p>Honestly, I don&#039;t even like Barber coins all that much.&nbsp; Never really did anything for me.&nbsp; The Barber quarter and dime I have are cheapies, but that was about how much I was willing to spend on them.&nbsp; A Barber.&nbsp; Certainly nothing I would have expected to call my name.&nbsp; But it did.</p><p><br /></p><p>Funny.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
