Message:: [QUOTE="softmentor, post: 1751632, member: 10469"]kind of an older thread but I though I'd chime in at last. For me it is the same feeling that got me hooked when I was a kid in the 60's, finding that one that is interesting to me. What is interesting to me is personal, and certainly different that the next person, but that's the point. It is the find, that moment of "cool" or Yes! or "wow" or just a little "huu, that's interesting" Its the passing of time doing something relaxing, pleasant, punctuated with moments of surprise and occasional delight. And yes, it is still worth it, there is enough of what interests me in circulation that I still crack a box and roll them back up. I usually do my re-roll while playing online poker so that goes pretty easy. Upon reflection, maybe its a little like poker too, what will the next card or the next coin be? I even find a small pleasure in seeing 3 of an older date come up in a row. 3 1964 nicks in a row or hitting 3 of a kind duces on the flop.My interest changes with time, a couple of years back I set aside some unc rolls as birth year of my first granddaughter, more of a bank search that a roll search for unc rolls. I've added 2009's to my search and hold. I'm still amazed that I can find AU58 or better coins that are 50 years old or more. and yes, who doesn't like silver, but that's really not the main thing for me, just a nice bonus. There are so many interesting things to find.Yes, its worth it.... to me.[/QUOTE]
