[QUOTE="mike98024, post: 295646, member: 10019"]"(but first i have to tell my wife...)." Eduard- Your judgement regarding coins is indisputable. But this idea of telling your wife that you want to buy a 1793 cent seems to be a recipe for trouble. I recommend embezzlement from the family account, selling assets secretly or some other less troublesome manner of getting the money rather than the conversation you are about to have. I am a man who is rarely at a loss for words, but when my wife asks me why I need a $500 cent, I feel like a kid begging for another pack of baseball cards, and my verbal skills approach those of a kindergartner. (One time I was going to a bar to watch a football game so she gave me $2 AND told me to put gas in the car. True story) Good luck with this monumental quest (the conversation, I mean) and then go buy a coin :) Mike[/QUOTE]
