<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Seattlite86, post: 3334496, member: 59737&quot;]Rick, I don’t think you’re being fair here. We don’t know anything about their situation and I see a lot of assumptions are being made. Everyone is assuming that:</p><p>1. Divorce is inevitable and it’s the OP’s wife’s fault. </p><p>2. The wife has some crazy expensive collection equal to the OP’s. </p><p>3. Asking for half of the collection amassed while together is selfish. </p><p>4. The OP is the “good guy” and the wife is the “bad guy”. </p><p>5. It’s perfectly acceptable to lie and hide things from your spouse. </p><p>6. Every situation is the same. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have had the pleasure of being married twice, and in my divorce had to give the value of all accrued coins in that marriage to my ex. My (current) wife doesn’t collect shoes, purses or anything of any real value (great that everyone thinks this is all women collect though). If we were to divorce, the coins we own are the only thing we have invested any real money into. I don’t know the OP, or his wife, but if my wife came up and asked me to sell my collection so we could split it, I wouldn’t be running to a lawyer, I’d be running to the dining table so we could discuss more. I love my collection, but it forever comes second to my wife and family. If it ever came down to my collection of my family, the collection would be the first to go. </p><p><br /></p><p>My advice for anyone who thinks their collection is more important than their family: don’t get married. There are so many things out there more important than our collections.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
