I think I've said this before, but I have the perfect wife. When I asked her to marry me almost 28 years ago, I said we needed to get a diamond engagement ring. She told me "I'd rather get a high-def TV."
Now is that perfect or not?

Here is a good one from the Dick Van Dyke show. Season 5 Episode 7...
Rob Petrie inherits an old desk from his recently deceased uncle, and within it a small hoard of coins is found. A numismatist is summoned for a house call and they all look through the coins using the Red Book to try and find a fortune.

Some real good numismatic jokes, like "these are old coins better call an "oldmismatist" instead of a numismatist.
Abe Lincoln makes an appearance as well.
