[QUOTE="Blaubart, post: 1466514, member: 37498"]When I think about romance and coins in the same thought, it's usually the end of romance. As in: "It's either me or your stupid coins!" ;) But I do get what you're saying and yes, I do the same thing. Not so much wondering if it was held by a president, but just ordinary people. How many times did it go around the world? Was it special to someone? Did it make some 6 year old kid's day when he found it at school? Was it sitting in someone's change jar for 25 years and then put back into circulation when that person passed away? I often wonder why a coin is in abnormally good condition, or why it's in such poor condition. Since I'm still new to coins, I like looking at a coin, especially a world coin, and wondering and then researching what was happening at that time and place where the coin was minted.[/QUOTE]
