Have You Ever Had A Dream About A Good Coin Find?

And I keep having dreams where I am at some old house and digging in the ground and are finding old coins in it, as I dig I find more and more old coins and start stuffing my pockets with them, until I am worried I will get caught stealing them and have to abandon them.

Another one I have always is that I am at some covered shopping gallery and there are about 10 coin shops with trays and plates full of old coins and I go through them, but just never by anything, yet have a lust too and can't.

I have this dream every few months and revisit it. The coins are usually the mishmash nonsense I refer to in my earlier post like a penny coin dated 1567 and 10 cm in size or a set of Tuvalu coins going up to the like 80 dollar coin that is oblong and brass.

Another one is that I am in a university dorm and have to gone home for the holidays but can't pack everything and have to leave it behind including mountains of coins in boxes and trays.

Finally, I am in some exotic Pacific Island or some country trying to catch my flight home and want some local currency but can never change my Kiwi dollars to get it, or are worried I don't have enough money on my credit card to get some.

Have any of you coin collectors considered mental therapy?

I thought about it but I didn't want the therapist to end up with all my coins, my insurance does not cover obsessions. Maybe I'll try and see if they would cover it under addiction counseling lol.

Agreed! Glad I am not the only one... Well, 52 instead of 45, but you get the idea.

For the record, therapy is to cope with the waking world.

I've had coin related dreams on multiple occasions, most of the time it's about a W quarter. Wish I could score one again, been two years since my last.

I am bumping this thread as I've had a dream in which I was one of a number of coin collectors invited to Buckingham Palace by King Charles III to help him choose the portrait for his coins. We sat in a circle around him while he passed us several different pattern UK 2 pence coins with various portraits on. One had a portrait like the 1969 Investiture medal on which he looked about 20, and one was a bit bizarre like the 1980s Dutch coins of Queen Beatrix. I found one which I liked, with a realistic mature portrait and told him which it was. I then wondered if anyone would notice if I slipped one of the coins into my pocket and took it home, as I realised they could become very valuable, but I decided against it as I was sure someone would notice it was missing!

Bumping this thread as last night I dreamed that I was at a Coin Fair. It was actually rather disappointing as most of the stalls were just selling modern proof sets from places like the Solomon Islands and Tuvalu, and there were no trays of mixed coins to sort through. One dealer had some error coins in PCGS and NGC slabs, and one that caught my attention was a mule: it had the reverse of a Kennedy half dollar and the obverse of a Tonga 20 seniti like this...

Unfortunately it was priced at £10,000, so I didn't buy it!

In my dream last night I was in some kind of public building and was trying to buy a candy bar from a vending machine but it malfunctioned and started spitting out hundreds of British pound coins. I grabbed a few but then an angry janitor came along with a big bucket and picked all of them up.
