I'm No Longer Collecting Coins

Don't give up; just put it aside for now. I put my collection away for almost 20 years. I was very surprised to see how the value of all my coins went up when I started again. If you have a Red Book or a coin magazine that shows values, I suggest that you put it in your box as well so you can see the difference from today's value and the value when you start again. Now that I started collecting again, I always find myself saying "I wish I never stopped" If you can afford it, I suggest going on the US mint site and signup for a subscription to the mint sets and proof sets. That way you do not have to be actively collecting coins but you will still be mailed the current years set. Of course these are just my opinions and it will be ultimately be up to you.

I changed my mind I cannot resist collecting coins! I am going to a dealer today. I guess I am back at collecting!

Well I'm not gonna get to go to the dealer today.

Hi Cool, Coins are cool too!! A guy should have a lot of different interests. Coin collecting, being just one of many, will make you a well rounded individual. This not only will be appealing to your girlfriends, but their parents will think you're someone special too!! Stable, well adjusted, has other interests, intellegent!!! Yes, they'll be happy she chooses to date a young man like you!! If you do put it aside for a few moments in time, it's OK to take a break. You will always have an interest, because it's knowledge, things you've taken the time to learn. Like painting, or playing the guitar, you've invested your time and energy, and you may stop for awhile, but you can pick it up and start again anytime you desire. Good luck on finding some wonderful coins and girlfriends too!!

Cool It's good you didn't stop because I'm 13 I have girlfriend. And she is ok that I collect coins she thinks it cute. But anyway thanks for rethinking about leaving us. You are part of the family remember that

Yay!!
I love it when it all ends well!

Thanks for listening to us, Cool!

All I can say is that my DH is a coin dealer and says that it did help him with the ladies. He said they automatically assume you are rich and will not stay away. So maybe you should become a dealer, not just a collector? Then you could have the money and the women. Just something to think about.
