Often the coins or art objects we acquire are less important than the circumstances around them.

The son always seeks the approval of the father & rarely gets it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. </p><p> Sometimes collectors get carried away buying this type coin <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie101" alt=":woot:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.
