[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 23779, member: 669"]My Beautiful Bride helps me out by translating legends and such on some of the Japanese tokens/medals that keep popping up masquerading as coins, but my numismatic studies have taught me more Japanese history than she recalls from her schoolgirl studies. :D So long as my numismatic expenditures come from our kids' inheritance and not from our living expense fund (which has to include cruises, other travel, and the occasional piece of jewelry), she really doesn't care. :p We decided long ago that we should each engage in individual activities that we enjoy, along with the many joint activities that we also enjoy.
