You know you were addicted at a very early age cause when your little sister put her tooth under the pillow one night for the Tooth Fairy ... You swapped out the two shiny 1964 Kennedy halves for three catseye marbles and a half-a-box of Milk Duds and left this note before she woke up.

You know you are addicted when you pour a bowl of cereal, see some mishappen pieces, and think "Oh cool! Mint errors!"

You know you are an addict when you talk to random strangers about coins, hoping to interest them and make a new convert.

You know your an addict when you go through the fast food drive through and the total is $4.01 and you pay with a five dollar bill, and you are disappointed when the cashier gives you a dollar bill for change.
When you have trained your 7 year old granddaughter to check her pocket change for wheats.

This one is for CRH. I went to the bank a few weeks ago to pickup some penny rolls. As I was there someone in front of me had an arm full of penny rolls (like 10 rolls) and was walking out. I gawked at him as he was walking out. I think I almost growled at him like he had my pennies.

Oh yeah and one more The cashier rings you up for $10.01 and you look through your pennies to decide which one is worth giving up. Yes I've actually done this.

You just might display addictive behavior when you refuse to pay $7.00 for the newest uncirculated bank rolls of Jefferson nickels on ebay. You call around to banks to see if they have any. The closest one that has them is 90 miles round trip.
So you get in the car, get $20 bucks in gas, and when you get to the bank you are allowed only one roll.

When it's 7:09 PM and you look at your military-hour-clock and immediately think, "S V.D.B" When you cringe at people throwing coins in a well / fountain When a bunch of people stare at you when you peek under the vending machine to check for lost change. When non-collectors gawk at the things that flow out of your pie-hole when someone mentions coins.
