Last year my wife went and gifted me with a gold quarter from the mint.I put it in the safe and have not looked at it since. Every time she ask me if I have looked at it, I tell her just to make sure its still there. I don't want to handle it. But I will never forget this gift.
Over the past year I talk about silver coins because I don't want her to spend her money on gold. She has said something about coins and silver . So maybe getting something coin wise in silver ? ? ? What ever you get just love it for her.

She's really bad at keeping secrets and always lets me open gifts early. Unwrapped 30th anniversary silver Eagles Proof and Uncirculated, 2017 silver Eagles Proof and Uncirculated, and a 50th anniversary silver Krugerrand.

I was so wrong.  She does know.  Stopped at the LCS, I picked out, and she filled, 11 spots in my 50 cent collection, and said "Merry Christmas". Then, she points out a local auction for a 1997 Specimen set, 10th Anniversary for the loonie, so now she has my attention. We won for less than the value of the loonie.  Only drag, I have to let her wrap them and wait 'til the big day. "We are poor little lambs...who have lost our way...Baa...Baa...Baa"

My wife did gave me a MS 1930 P LWC a few years ago. It was a very nice looking coin and a thoughtful gift. She went to the LCS (hobby shop) and said "I want the most expensive penny you have." I guess she was luck he didn't have 1909 S VDB. She was lucky. Not me. |

This is a very delicate situation. I mean - even I have hard times figuring out what coin do I really want. How could somebody else possibly know? Two years ago my mom gave me a silver plated medal ... Completely useless and tasteless design ... I kept it for memory, but kindly asked her not to spend any more money on coins or medals. It's the only honest thing to to, I guess

The 50 cent pieces (I), we, picked out the other day will look good in my collection as soon as I get them out of the 2x2's with the price on them. The 1997 Specimen set has alot going for it. 10th Anniversary Loonie, first year for the Toonie to be in a set, 50 cent piece design change, NII quarter, and the cent went round.
