She went shopping today. She came home and said, “I have a surprise for you.” Then she handed me a coin, face down. It was a Wheat Ear Cent. I thank her and turned it over. I was expecting to see a date in the forties or fifties. Instead, she told me I owed her one cent. LOL A 1926 cent is something you don’t see all that often.
I told her I like it and the date and added that’s it’s a 96 year old coin. She told me to keep it and because she loves me it won’t cost me a cent. Lol
Did her nose grow afterwards? LoL I've have heard that line before....and shortly after it didn't cost me a cent....as you cant buy a 1ct Diamond for a cent. got played like a cheap fiddle. Oy yey...what can I say?
Yeah right I never met a married man yet who hasn't paid.... some more than others... ask if she work out a payment plan
She bought something, food that’s non taxable. The sale was $5.99 and she gave the cashier $6.00, a five and a one dollar bill. The cashier handed her this cent. My wife saw it was special and immediately put it in her pocket do she wouldn’t spend or lose it.
Very nice find. Very nice that she noticed it. Very nice that she put it aside for you. Now you need to teach her to be a collector herself, because a true collector would have seen that coin and immediately asked the cashier if they had any additional coins that look like that in their coin drawer.
My lady has brought me a few coins over the years. The last was a proof dime. She actually knew it was a proof.
She’ll never be a collector. It’s taken me years to get to this point. She sees the enjoyment I get out of my coins so she plays along. Still, she says that she’s spending it all at face value when I die as she doesn’t want to mess with it. At least I know she’s joking about that. LOL
We’re a family, just the two of us. What’s mine is hers and what’s hers is mine. And I mean everything except clothes and makeup. Lol
My wife doesn't use makeup, and we can swap T-shirts if we need to. Pants, not so much; her legs are more normal length than mine.
