Most money you ever spent

Yeah I know. The guy asked me to see if I can find someone interested to make an offer on it. He is not entirely sure he wants to get rid of it either.

Just making sure... I don't want to see you make that mistake. Confidentiality is very important in this business. Shoot me a PM... I might be able to point you in the right direction.

 

You gonna loan me the other $85k? I don't wanna take out a mortgage on my house! To be completely honest I've never had 100 grand in my life!! Closest I ever came was the check that paid for my house and a good part of that was borrowed

 

According to this post you could sell @GDJMSP He is an antique and I bet you could get $85,000 for him.

 

Ain't that the truth!! There's coins I'd love to own that cost that but I'd almost be afraid to own them. At least the great rarities are easily identifyable

 

I guess I don't have permission to view the post still funny tho!

 

If the US Mint ever charges my credit card, a proof $5 Baseball Hall of Fame gold coin. Same goes for the uncirculated version.

 

I,am not sure i will either!....LOL

 

I bought an extremely nice 32S quarter for 700, but paid for it with 30 dollars face value worth of junk silver. Probably 350 out of pocket. I prefer to cherry pick and then trade up for the high end stuff. I have now gotten my second 42/41D dime from junk silver, so I will try to trade one of them for about 250 retail value, so both the seller and I win.

 

Not very often. So far I have only gone over the $1000 mark six times in over 40 years and all of those times in the past twelve years.

Five of my six $1000+ purchases have been for large cents including my new record from last Saturday.

 

Not gonna tell you. My wife will make my life hell if she ever finds out LOL

 

Should have said 'worse than hell'...

 

Depends there's months I don't buy a thing others I spend $5-10k my finances are unpredictable being self employed

 

The trick there is when she brings up your coin collection you counter the assault with artillery bring out the big guns such as "you spend more money on clothes than I do coins" or drop the Hydrogen Bomb " You see that diamond ring on your finger, I bought that you see the roof over our heads, I bought that you see all of the nice furniture we have, yeah I bought that too. We live very comfortably so be grateful for what we have and what we can afford."

Note: you may need to edit the Hydrogen bomb depending on the situation.

And that's how you can get your wives off your backs gentlemen. That or sneak around in the morning and hide all the packages.

 

Or the real simple solution not be married!! Like me I only answer to myself even when I got a girlfriend it don't matter what I spend on coins it's my money only way I'd get married is if she was both gorgeous and loaded and hopefully a nymphomaniac otherwise no ring for me!

 

I think this is the point where, if we had more than a scant few female members, we'd see at least one pithy response. Perhaps something along the lines of "Gee, and you seem like such a prize."

 

$10,500

 

That's a beautiful coin!! One of my favorites
