<p>[QUOTE="jaceravone, post: 571108, member: 9474"]There definitely is a common bond between all of us coin collectors. A hobby should be fun, so they say, but let me tell you.... whether you are trying to compete with someone else or even yourself, there is a stress associated with that. I have never tried to compete with anyone else for a better coin or collection. But I have definitely competed with myself. Striving to purchase better and better coins..... making mistakes and then learning from them........the point is, there are some days that I haven't even bought a coin and I am stressed just thinking about buying a coin. I am sure many, if not most of you, have felt this one time or another. But there was a very small time in our lives when there was no stress at all. Just complete happiness and bliss when you sat at home looking through all those wheaties, just hoping to find the lucky cent to fill the hole. Not a care in the world whether or not it was a DDO or had a S and a VDB on the coin. (Ok, that second one might be a stretch..... because I think that was the first coin that was ingrained in my brain to look for!) LOL! But you all know what I mean. Those are the days that I miss.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
